In 1999 Sega Dreamcast owners were looking forward to their very own Castlevania game. It never happened. In 2021 an E3 demo resurfaced of the game while it was in development. This is that demo.

Episode Notes:

1. Gameplay footage from redream. I also captured gameplay on real hardware but ran into problems with the 3 headed snake area loading.

2. This game was canceled in April of 2000 after being postponed. If you go back, there is evidence Konami was originally expecting to release it at the launch of the DC in NA 9/9/99.

3. Playing something like this is tough because you have to give it some leeway for being unfinished work. You have to see the potential, if any. I honestly tried to do that.

4. After this was canceled, it would take over 3 years for another console Castlevania to appear in 3D. The imperfect but vastly superior, Lament of Innocense.

5. Konami released 10 games for the DC after this games original release date in January 2000. The idea it was canceled solely based on "a lack of confidence", is suspect at best.
