Dracula's Castle (ドラキュラ城, Dracula Castle) is a stage in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. It is the home stage of Simon and Richter.

Stage description

Dracula's Castle features two platforms to the left and right that move up and down. All the way to the right side is a set of stairs whose bottom half is broken off. Various bosses from the Castlevania series appear as stage hazards. Candles in the background can be destroyed, dropping items.

Hazards

During gameplay, various boss characters from Castlevania will make an appearance, including the Creature (also known as "Frankenstein" or "Frankenstein's Monster") with Flea Man (also known as "Igor"), Mummy, Medusa, Werewolf, Carmilla, and Death. A silhouette of Kid Dracula from the Boku: Dracula-kun spin-off series was also shown during the August 8, 2018 Ultimate Direct, but not fully confirmed. Each enemy has their own entrance based off of how they appeared during the original boss battle (such as Werewolf leaping through a window).

Dracula appears as a boss in an area resembling Dracula's Castle, but with a flat and empty layout. Series director Masahiro Sakurai stated that "time will tell" under what conditions Dracula appears.

Origin

Simon fighting Dracula in the original Castlevania.

Throughout the Castlevania series, the top of Dracula's Castle is the endpoint of the protagonist's journey, where they fight the main antagonist Dracula. Dracula's Castle is always a large structure full of horrifying monsters and tortuous rooms; in the background is the clock tower explored Castlevania III and Super Castlevania IV. Candles are a common element in the Castlevania games and are broken to reveal whip upgrades, hearts, food, and items. Every time Dracula's Castle is destroyed, it magically rebuilds itself every hundred or so years, along with a reincarnation of Dracula.
