Castlevania: Dracula X is a 1995 platform game developed and published by Konami for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System. It is the second and final Castlevania installment to be released for the Super NES. It shares the gameplay and storyline of Castlevania: Rondo of Blood, which was previously released exclusively in Japan on the PC Engine Super CD-ROM in 1993. While the plot is similar to Rondo of Blood and it uses many of that game’s graphics, it features all-new levels and altered gameplay elements, rather than being a direct port because of the limits of the Super NES cartridge format and exclusivity agreements with PC Engine maker NEC. It was released on July 21, 1995, in Japan, in September 1995 in the US, February 22, 1996, in Europe, and on June 22, 1996, in Australia.
The setting: medieval Transylvania. One hundred years have passed since legendary hero Simon Belmont defeated the evil Count Dracula and sealed him away for what was supposed to be eternity (Making the game set in 1791). The people have long since forgotten about the horror of the undead, thus allowing a few depraved individuals to restore the Prince of Darkness to his former state; sleeping in his coffin by day and preying upon hapless victims by night.
Dracula now plans to get revenge on his old enemy through his descendants by locking Annet, the girlfriend of Belmont’s great grandson, Richter, and her younger little sister, Maria, in his dark and gloomy castle. Once aware of this, Richter takes his ancestor’s sacred whip, passed down through the years from father to son, and sets out for Dracula’s castle to rescue Annet and Maria, and to seal away the evil Count for good. The dark priest and major antagonist of both Rondo of Blood and its direct sequel Symphony of the Night, Shaft, is completely absent from the game’s story and is never made reference to.
