Richter and crew are set to return for another round of vampire slaying. Netflix confirms that Castlevania: Nocturne has been renewed for a second season.
The announcement comes a little over a week after its official launch on September 28th. There is no release date, only that the project is in active development. We did get a brief teaser through some storyboards and layouts in the new trailer, though.

The trailer confirms Alucard, which is no surprise if you’ve finished the first season. Considering Ricther’s lineage of games, we’re likely to see much more of Alucard in the coming season than we did in this one.
We also seem to see Juste Belmont, touching the grave of his wife Lydie Erlanger, who was a supporting character in Castlevania: Harmony of Dissonance. His absence is explained in the show, but he could prove another powerful ally for Richter and friends.
It does seem like the project is in the storyboarding phase, so chances are we won’t hear anything for a while. However, director Samuel Deats said that the wait might not be as long as we think. For context, the first season of Nocturne was officially announced in June 2022, and premiered in September 2023.
The first season of Castlevania: Nocturne is available to stream on Netflix now. The original series, Castlevania, is also available to stream on Netflix.
