Good news Castlevania fans, Netflix's successful animated series of the same name will be receiving a fourth season. This announcement, which included a brief clip from the third season, was made on Netflix's official NX Twitter account. Here it is:
At the moment, no other details about the fourth season have been revealed. The third season was officially announced in November 2018 and has only just arrived earlier this month. If season four is the same size and scale as the existing ones, we likely won't see the next chapter until some time next year.

Let's see the first two were good. The third one pushed me away. I'm sorry do not add that crap to a series like this. It completely ruined the whole series. I and everyone I know will not be watching it because of that.
Can't wait,I love all 3 seasons
I loved first two seasons. I didn’t like season 3, I couldn’t even finish it. I would really like to see now the story of 1999 battle and sorrow games with Soma and Julius.
@Dirty0814 What crap
That you are still unable to watch on your Nintendo Switch.
Hey, that's cool. Just started Season 3, so I don't know how it fares. Would love to see a gritty animated take on Metroid
Watched the first 2 seasons and thought it was okay. I heard people hated s3 so I'm just gonna stop watching. Netflix knows how to kill off a show
@Sandro89
I would say watch it and judge for yourself. I for one loved it.
I loved season 3. Just a lot going on. Yes it may have been a set up, but it's so interesting to see what is going on with the world...... and man did I feel a pit in my stomach with how horribly things went for many of the characters and their story. I cannot wait to see what will happen!
@Dirty0814 Grow up. Characters in an animated show can be attracted to whoever they want. You think they’re going to cry because you and your friends won’t watch it?
Season 3 stretched an alright story worth 2-4 episodes to borderline unbearable 10 episodes of mainly nothing... not even meaningful character development or clever dialogue.
Altered Carbon resleeved is basically a Yakuza movie with a cool and compact plot, so that should make some gamers happy.
Season 3 is horrible, I've lost all interest.
I liked all seasons but in 3 the Alucard scene (you know what scene) was disgusting.
@moltakfire
Yeah the brother sister stuff is illegal for a reason, definitely unnecessary.
All 3 seasons are good, but each new season, they are adding flaws. Slow paced episodes was added in the second, in the third, was added some disgusting things, but yet have good animation and worthy things. The city of the mage fight is very good.
I have enjoyed all three seasons so far. The third was a little slow at times, but the last two episodes were epic.
@shaneoh Sumi and Taka aren't supposed to be siblings, just two people from the same kingdom.
@shaneoh For the time period this show falls in, it would not be. That stuff, detestable as it may be, was fairly commonplace so the show simply portrayed something accurate. And media portrayals shouldn’t be restricted just because the subject matter is uncomfortable, at least not within reason
@ShikabaneHime13
I know it's not out of place for the time period, but still, squick.
@BionicDodo
I could swear they called each other brother or sister at some point
@shaneoh I don't recall that and always assumed they were friends or a couple. Someone asked one of the animators, Sam Deats, on Twitter and he confirmed that they are not siblings.
@Savino
Spoiler?
Season 3 was my favorite so far. It had enough action and character developement.
@Savino Chill out with the spoilers, dude.
@moltakfire Thank you! The series has been rated R this entire time, so what does any expect? Curse words, extreme violence and gore, blood and guts by the gallons, and blasphemous content against Judeo-Christian faith is perfectly acceptable, but now the content in Season 3 is where people draw the line? Pfffftttt
And I say this as a lifelong follower of Christ, and someone who normally does NOT want content like that in my fiction, usually because it feels contrived and made only to titillate horny fans' fantasies. Felt right at home in Castlevania.
Still haven’t watched season 3, I’ll get to that eventually.
@burninmylight It felt a bit forced to create some extra tension I could've done without because while the other part of doing the adult was build up more natural the Alucard one felt a bit shoe horned in. It was the worst part for the season, I found Isaac and St. germain to be the most interesting characters in the season.
@khululy I actually agree with you, and I reread my comment from earlier and realize that what I meant sounds totally different from what I typed.
You're right, that part did feel forced, and it was clearly a means to shoo out some throwaway characters before the end of the season. What I meant was that having such a scene appear in a series like Netflix's Castlevania, where the very first episode features an extended dialogue about getting very "friendly" with goats, and dead fetuses hanging out of demons' mouths, is far from being out of place.
It would be like complaining about fornication in a show like The Tudors or Game of Thrones. You know what you signed up for from the get-go, so don't start drawing lines now (not saying you, @khululy, but in general).
Just started watching the series and shockingly, my wife is enjoying it. She hates cartoons, she hates games, she hates vampires and horror films ... but she likes this. I'll go with it as long as I can?
@burninmylight In terms of context within the Castlevania universe or this take on it, it is not strange at all I was just watching it and felt like a bit forced and Alucard kinda felt like, "Eh ... ok what's happening, I'll just play along..." when it all went down, while the one with Hector felt like a development within the way they interacted with eachother over the the course of the season.
Isaac was the star of the season though and I am looking forward for season 4.
I just wish they'd keep the pacing of the 2nd season because the 3rd felt a bit padded, as if they had 6-8 episodes of content spread across 10, Alucard's arc felt a bit weak overall but the ending seems an interesting development.
Season 3 was brilliant, the best so far. Happy to see all the puritans triggered and running away to their space spaces, too.
I would like it if we move on to another Belmont era. I would love nothing more than to see Simon's story.
Season 4 needs to have Curse of Darkness happen. They've set up everything for that to happen. Hector will become the badass we knew him as.
Good news, but I have first to finish the third season (I only watched the first 2 episodes so far).
