Castlevania is a video game series created and published by Konami. The series debuted in Japan on September 26, 1986 with Akumajō Dracula (悪魔城ドラキュラ, Akumajō Dorakyura, lit. "Demon Castle Dracula"), which was later released as Castlevania in the United States (May 1, 1987) and PAL (December 19, 1988). Titles in the series have been released on numerous video game consoles, handheld game consoles, and personal computer platforms, and several have been re-released on multiple platforms and included as part of compilation packages.[1]
The series' characters have appeared in several other Konami games. There have been also numerous separately released music albums, initially by King Records.
