Superdeluxe Games, a Japanese publisher with ties to Limited Run, has announced that it is publishing a deluxe edition of Castlevania Anniversary Collection on Switch and PS4 this June—and more physical packs are on the way.
Castlevania Anniversary Collection will include a 3-sided case, trading cards, art cards, 4-disc soundtrack and a bonus "Castlevania: The Secret History of the Crescent Moon" book. This pack launches in Japan on June 26th, 2025, but Superdeluxe ships internationally. If you order direct from the Superdeluxe store, you'll get a "Castlevania: Dracula Simon pin badge" as a bonus.
"We have received many requests from our fans, and we are now pleased to announce the release of the Japanese packaged version of Castlevania: Dracula Anniversary Collection," says the team at Konami behind the collection. "Both the regular and deluxe versions come with gorgeous bonuses, such as beautiful illustrations, and it is no exaggeration to say that they are a permanent collection. We hope you will take this opportunity to pick up the "Castlevania: Dracula Anniversary Collection" and enjoy it."
That's not all, however; Superdeluxe has also stated that it plans to give Castlevania Advance Collection, Castlevania Dominus Collection and Contra Anniversary Collection the same treatment. Standard and Deluxe editions of those three packs will be released later this year.

That is so incredibly cool! I'd love to get these, but in English...
@Pillowpants
There's a good chance that they'll support English language when you plug them in anyway.
A lot of digital releases are true multi-region and set a language based on your Switch system.
I imported the SuperDeluxe release of Chicory, and it has full English language support.
It also had the surprising advantage of being much cheaper to order from Amazon.co.jp versus the Limited Run Games release, so something to consider.
A reprint of the anniversary collection distributed globally would be nice I've tried tracking one down for switch in Australia but it's crazy expensive
Won't happen but I can dream
@RupeeClock Thanks for the reply! I'll keep it in mind, they look absolutely fabulous! As long as the games are English, I'm fine with the artwork to be in Japanese. May be a good queue to finally start learning the language too, haha.
So glad FOMO hardly affects me.
I will go to bat for SuperDeluxe. They've proven to be less corrupt, more honest, and easier to work with than their American parent. Or even their European uncle that has taken on some of said American's bad habits: like kicking and ignoring anyone with any criticism of American company.
Never meet your heroes kids.
@Pillowpants They are in english it's the same rom we have
