Castlevania (V2.0) - Timeline
- Thread starter Megatron
- Start date
Still working on the StokerVerse Stuff, I came across the video game officially part of it, Dracula: Dark Reign, released for the GBC in 2023 (Demo only, full game will release this year). Funnily enough, it's a MetroidVania style adaptation of some parts of Dracula, where you play as Jonathan Harker escaping Dracula's Castle, though it's said to expand the story thereafter, so we'll see. Interestingly, the opening text dates it to 1897

So, we have a simplified timeline, now let's talk about the real simplified order, starting with the Classicvanias!
To start let's place the games in numerical order and with their latest updates.
Now with this in mind, Hunted Castle must be set after SCIV since it's the last Simon game.
Now let's discuss the Christopher Belmont's games
Christopher Belmont's adventures were referenced during CV and CVII, so I'll place those games in between II and III.
Now let's dive into the tie-in media:
1) Castlevania The Animated Series: This could be an hot take, but I plan to replace CVIII with it, I know we would lose the Grant Dinasty storyline, but the series is more in line with what we're shown in Symphony, preparing the player for the next arc.
2) Castlevania: Belmont Legacy, doesn't replace The Adventure, as it occurs in between pages of issue 5, since the comic is a full flashback, and the present day are set just before Belmont's Revenge, I'll place the full series before the second game.
3) (WIP)
Castlevania --> Vampire Killer --> Castlevania Chronicles
Castlevania II: Simon's Quest
Castlevania: The Adventure --> Castlevania: The Adventure ReBirth
Castlevania: The Belmont Legacy #1-5
Castlevania II: Belmont's Revenge
Castlevania III: Dracula's Course --> Castlevania Seasons 1-4
Super Castlevania IV
Haunted Castle --> Haunted Castle Revisited
