Demo Save Data Transfer
Players will be able to carry their demo progress into the full game, although both versions must be played on the same platform and with the same account. The demo save data must also remain on the system for the transfer to work.

Castlevania: Belmont’s Curse is being developed by Konami alongside Evil Empire and Motion Twin. Set 23 years after Castlevania III: Dracula’s Curse, the game follows Rose Belmont as she takes on the role of a new Belmont family hero.
The story is set in medieval Paris in 1499, where monstrous creatures have emerged and engulfed the city in flames. Rose joins her father Trevor Belmont, armed with the legendary Vampire Killer whip, as they investigate the threat surrounding a mysterious castle.
Castlevania: Belmont’s Curse targets 60 FPS on supported platforms, while the Nintendo Switch version runs at 30 FPS. The standard edition requires approximately 8 GB of storage, with the Midnight Edition requiring 10 GB. On Nintendo Switch, the requirements are 4 GB for the Standard Edition and 6 GB for the Midnight Edition.
