During the February 12 State of Play, Konami, Evil Empire, and Motion Twin have announced Castlevania: Belmont’s Curse, a new 2D exploration action game launching in 2026. Castlevania: Belmont’s Curse will be available for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam.

Here’s an overview of the game, via Konami and PlayStation Blog:

Medieval Paris, where the tolling bells herald the end

The game is set in 1499 Paris, a city attacked by monstrous creatures suddenly emerge from the shadows.

Armed with the legendary holy whip, the Vampire Killer, Trevor Belmont’s successor ventures into the burning streets and the looming castle to hunt down the beasts.

Weapons and abilities

That’s right: the series’ iconic whip returns and is more important than ever. Crack your whip to move around freely like a trapeze artist and master its mechanics to get creative and pounce on your prey like a wolf in fast-paced combat.

However the whip is not the only tool at your disposal. There will be more weapons and abilities for you to master. In today’s reveal, you can see our hero use the Sword, which is easy to use and offers solid attack power. There’ll be more weapons and abilities revealed in the future. You will need to strategically plan your next move in combat and make full use of the tools to hand to stand a chance to save the city from the brink of destruction.

Beloved elements of Castlevania with a new art style

True to the roots of the series, you will encounter colorful characters and powerful foes, stumble upon many secret chambers, dig up numerous hidden items (yes, certain walls can be broken to reveal health-restoring meat items), and whip your way through challenging areas! As example, did you spot the familiar Zombie enemy in the trailer? They appear early in the game and while they move slowly, making them easy to defeat, they can become troublesome in large numbers.

The trailer also fully showcases the game’s unique art style, a unique colorful approach that stays true to the classic gothic look but will let you discover the world of Castlevania like never before.

Untitled John Wick Game

During the February 12 State of Play, Saber Interactive and Lionsgate have announced “Untitled John Wick Game,” a new action game developed in collaboration with filmmaker Chad Stahelski. Untitled John Wick Game is in development for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S. Like the films, the new game will star Keanu Reeves. 

Here’s an overview of the new game, via the reveal trailer’s description:

Management is here to serve. Created in collaboration between Saber, Lionsgate, and Chad Stahelski, the new “Untitled John Wick Game” video game will feature an original gameplay narrative set in the John Wick timeline years before the Impossible Task. It will expand on the franchise’s lore during that time with familiar characters fans already know and love, as well as compelling new ones created specifically for this production.

Saber’s authentic design will deliver on the signature style and unique elements fans expect from a John Wick mission, including a hard-hitting gun-fu combat system, jaw-dropping camerawork, intense driving experiences, cinematic storytelling, and a bold range of atmospherically immersive environments, all crafted to make players feel like they are in a John Wick movie, playing the role of the Baba Yaga himself.

This is the ultimate John Wick gaming experience that fans have been waiting for.

Silent Hill: Townfall Reveal Trailer Released

Silent Hill: Townfall Reveal Trailer Released

Konami and PlayStation have revealed the first trailer for Silent Hill: Townfall, over three years after it was initially announced in 2022. Annapurna Interactive, Konami, and No Code are developing the game. 

In a PlayStation Blog post, Motoi Okamoto and Jon McKellan of Konami and Screen Burn respectively, stated the following about the game’s radio, perspective, and combat: 

“While the Silent Hill radio has often been a passive device, alerting the player to nearby enemies through the sound of static, the CRTV takes this concept further. Not only is it a useful tool in encounters – allowing Simon to ‘see’ through the environment and locate nearby threats – but it also picks up signals from around the town that unveil more of the story and even help guide Simon through some of the other challenges he faces.

As shown in the latter part of the reveal trailer, the gameplay is experienced directly through the protagonist’s eyes in first person, in a change that we felt best matched our narrative, puzzle and design intentions.

While there are many different melee and ranged weapons to use in a pinch, sometimes fighting isn’t the best option. Using a combination of the CRTV, some environmental opportunities, and an intuitive peek system, stealth is an equally important strategy needed to survive.”

Check out the first reveal trailer for Silent Hill: Townfall below:

Konami will reveal more details about the game and its release date during the upcoming Silent Hill Transmission, which will be held at February 12 at 4 PM PDT / 7 PM EDT. Lastly, Silent Hill: Townfall will release on PlayStation 5 and PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store in 2026.
