Castlevania 40th Anniversary: Free Original Game & Big Sales!

Konami celebrates Castlevania's 40th anniversary with a free download of the original game on mobile, plus sales on PS and Steam, and a new game coming in October.

Hey, Castlevania fans! Did you hear about the big 40th anniversary celebration? Konami is pulling out all the stops, and you can get your hands on some sweet deals and a free game.

First up, the original Castlevania that launched on the NES is now available for free on iOS and Android. The app is called "Castlevania 40th Anniversary" and you can download it from the App Store or Google Play. But here's the catch: it's only free for a limited time. The app will be removed from stores on October 24, so make sure you grab it before then. Once you download it, it's yours to keep forever. How cool is that?

But that's not all. Konami is also running a massive sale on the Castlevania series on the PlayStation Store and Steam. The PS sale runs until October 7, and the Steam sale ends October 1. You can get some titles for up to 80% off, with many games at half price or less. If you've been waiting to dive into the series or complete your collection, now's the perfect time.

And for those craving something new, the next installment, Castlevania: Belmont's Curse, is coming on October 15 for PS5, Xbox Series X/S, Switch, and PC. Even better, a demo will be available on October 1, and your progress will carry over to the full game. So you can get a head start on the action.

With all these goodies, it's a great time to be a Castlevania fan. Whether you're revisiting the classics or gearing up for the new adventure, there's something for everyone. Will you be picking up the free game or any of the deals? Let us know in the comments!
