There are one of two ways konami can go from here, especially when you consider there aren’t very many castlevanias left to give this treatment: A.) ReBirth Trilogy (especially when you consider this is the same engine and dev team as Adventure ReBirth) B.) Dracula X Collection, finally bringing Rondo and Symphony to other modern consoles besides just PS4/5 I would say a ps2 collection is also likely but too easy for them to do in terms of what Konami can/cant do in terms of legal portability
How much you wanna bet the reason games for switch are still getting announced for a 2025 release window is because Nintendo aren’t fully committed to a successor…at least not yet…
I’m fairly certain once they got things sorted out on the technical side of things, they’ll release a digital version on storefronts. I supported them and bought astebros on steam because it was too good not to give them money after trying it in the first place…that’s the problem with digital market places, most devs don’t offer demos but then the ones that are typically get buried under literal shovelware
All the more evidence that Nintendo prolly isn’t going to do anything substantial when it comes to “switch successor” they have the safe mind set “if it ain’t broke don’t, fix it”
I’m willing to give the developer one more chance with this, considering this was originally only bundled with the collector’s edition of the remaster of 2…which is since patched
