What is in each collection?
Castlevania Anniversary Collection: early console and handheld releases
Konami’s 2019 announcement lists eight games: Castlevania, Castlevania II: Simon’s Quest, Castlevania III: Dracula’s Curse, Super Castlevania IV, Castlevania: The Adventure, Castlevania II: Belmont’s Revenge, Castlevania Bloodlines and Kid Dracula. The collection also includes a bonus eBook. The announcement gives the original release date as May 16, 2019 and described the launch as a digital exclusive. That launch description is not a current check of every store or format.
Castlevania Advance Collection: three GBA games and Dracula X
Konami’s September 23, 2021 announcement lists Circle of the Moon, Harmony of Dissonance and Aria of Sorrow, along with Dracula X, a 1995 Super Nintendo title. Advertised features include rewind, save/load and replay options, a gallery and an encyclopedia. If you are choosing it for convenience features as well as the games, check the collection’s listing for the version you plan to use.

Check the platform and regional store before buying
- Choose the game or era. Use the title lists above to identify the right collection; the Anniversary, Advance and Dominus collections cover different groups of games.
- Match it to your system. Confirm the platform on Konami’s linked page. In particular, Konami lists the Advance Collection for PS4 and Xbox One and separately says it is compatible with PS5 and Xbox Series X|S.
- Open your own region’s storefront. Store availability and prices can vary by account region, and the cited Konami pages do not establish current prices or inventory in every market.
- Review the listing before checkout. Confirm the included games and any platform-specific details shown for the version you are buying.
Availability details to keep in mind
Konami’s official pages establish the listed game contents, platforms and advertised features, but they do not establish current prices or guarantee that every collection is available in every region. The Anniversary Collection’s 2019 announcement called its launch a digital exclusive; that statement should not be generalized into a claim about the physical-edition status of the other collections.
