Netflix has greenlit the adult dark animated fantasy-themed Castlevania-Nocturne for a second season, with the expected availability on an unconfirmed date in 2024. Based on the Konami video game series and set in 1792 during the French Revolution, Castlevania: Nocturne picks up 300 years after the end of the original Castlevania series, which aired for four seasons (from 2017-2021).
“Thanks to all of the Castlevania fans old and new for the amazing response and support! We are excited to be able to bring you more Castlevania: Nocturne and the next chapter in the rise of Richter Belmont,” said Creator/Showrunner/Writer Clive Bradley and Showrunner Kevin Kolde in a statement.
Project 51 Productions and Powerhouse Animation will continue to produce Castlevania: Nocturne for Netflix.
The official season one synopsis: In a remote part of western France, the counter-revolutionary aristocracy has forged an alliance with a terrifying Vampire Messiah, who promises to ‘eat the sun’ and unleash an army of vampires and nightcreatures to crush the revolution and enslave humanity. Annette, a sorceress from the Caribbean, seeks out Richter Belmont, last descendant of the long-fabled family of vampire hunters, to lead the resistance.
Eight episodes of Castlevania: Nocturne were produced in season one. A total of 32 episodes were produced for parent series Castlevania.
