The first Nintendo Switch screenshots for Castlevania: Belmont\u2019s Curse are in, and depending on who you ask, this version of the game might be looking a little rough.<\/p>\n

Pre-orders for the title started on the Nintendo eShop this week. That\u2019s brought us six different images to look at, and this is actually the first time we\u2019re seeing the Nintendo Switch version at all.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ll first mention that the project is still very much in development and the final version could improve. That said, the criticism right now surrounds the game\u2019s resolution \u2013 things look a bit blurry. It does hurt that Konami isn\u2019t releasing a Nintendo Switch 2 version as that could theoretically provided technical bumps.<\/p>\n

Castlevania: Belmont\u2019s Curse is a notable entry for the series as Konami decided to team up with Evil Empire on this one. The studio previously worked on Dead Cells and The Rogue Prince of Persia. Interestingly, The Rogue Prince of Persia did get a Nintendo Switch 2 version.<\/p>\n

One thing that\u2019s also confirmed<\/a> is that Castlevania: Belmont\u2019s Curse is targeting 30 frames per second on Nintendo Switch. On other platforms, it\u2019s 60 FPS.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re curious about the game, we have the following details:<\/p>\n
