Castlevania on Netflix has quietly become one of the best animated series on the platform, and largely bucked the curse of video game adaptations in the process.
It has been over a year since we found out the show would be getting a third season, and now we know that the new batch of episodes will be with us very soon (a month, to be exact).
Netflix has confirmed that the new season will stream from March 5 with a neat new poster teasing "more mystery, murder, mayhem, and vampires than ever".
What to Read Next
The third season of the show was officially confirmed at the end of 2018 shortly after the release of the second.
Star Richard Armitage also previously revealed to Digital Spy that a third outing was in the works too, saying at the time: "We're about to record a third. The second season hasn't been aired yet, but we're about to do a third."
Meanwhile, producer Adi Shankar has revealed why video game character Grant Danasty hasn't appeared in the TV series.
"Grant's there," he explained. "He's in the world. Just because we're not seeing them in the show doesn't mean they don't exist in the world…
"I'll reference what I said before about how in our universe events are similar but there's also variations and differences. Grant's definitely in the world."
Perhaps he will pop up in season three?
Castlevania seasons one and two are streaming now on Netflix.
