Trophy and Achievement Guide in Castlevania: Belmont's Curse
| Trophy Guide Summary | |
|---|---|
| PS5 Trophies | 30 (1 Platinum, 5 Gold, 10 Silver, 14 Bronze) |
| Steam Achievements | 29 (12 Achievements, 17 Hidden) Same list with PS5, just no Platinum |
| Missable Trophies | Endings and secret bosses need planning |
| Playthroughs Needed | 2 recommended, one for 100% and one for Dialog Skipper |
Is a Second Playthrough Required
Not for most trophies. Dialog Skipper is the exception, since you need to finish the game in under 4 hours.
The main story takes around 12 to 14 hours and 100% takes 19 to 22 hours, so save the speedrun for a second run once you know the map.
Missable Trophies and Endings
The game has three endings, and each one has its own trophy. The bad ending is a scripted trap that you walk into during the story. The normal and true endings both come from beating Dracula, and the difference is whether you have Absolution equipped.

Trophy Roadmap
[1] Start the Story and Break Everything.
Hit every candle you see from the first screen onwards. Lamplighter and Transylvanian Express fill up as you play, so you don't need to grind for them.
[2] Beat Every Boss and Collect Along the Way.
Defeat every boss you meet and search each room for weapons, health and mana upgrades, clues, and Mirrors of Life.
[3] Work Through the Arcana.
Every arcana has up to three Works of Mercy. Complete them to unlock the blessings. Use the Fallen's spell with a whip equipped at some point for True Belmont.
[4] Check the Master's Quarters.
In the Sanctuary of Solitude, climb the upper balconies with the whip rings and find the secret area at the top for Always the Same Roof.
[5] Pick Your Ending Order.
The bad ending triggers on its own at the Clock Tower Bridge, and the game continues after that. Beat Dracula with Absolution, unequipped for the normal ending. For the true ending, ring the four Bells of Virtue, defeat Shadow Rose, equip Absolution, and beat both of Dracula's forms.
[6] Reach 100% and Finish With a Speedrun.
Clean up everything else until Perfectionist Hunter pops. After that, you can start a new run and head straight for Dracula. Skip every cutscene and dialogue that you can to finish in under 4 hours.
