'''''[[Castlevania]]: Rondo of Blood''''' (originally released in Japan as '''''Akumajō Dracula X: Chi no Rondo''''') was released for the [[TurboGrafx-16|PC-Engine]] Super CD-ROM-ROM in 1993. Initially, [[No Export for You|it was only released in Japan]] but was finally ported to the [[PlayStation Portable]] with ''[[Video Game Remake|Castlevania: The Dracula X Chronicles]]'', and subsequently to the Wii [[Virtual Console]].
In 1792, the evil priest Shaft resurrects Dracula. In a [[Dangerously Genre Savvy|rare flash of brilliance,]] Dracula immediately attacks the current Belmont's hometown and tries to kill him right off the [[Incredibly Lame Pun|bat.]] Richter Belmont was luckily out of town training. So, Dracula goes for plan B: [[I Have Your Wife|kidnap Richter's fianceé Annette]], a distant relative of the Belmont Clan named Maria, and two other villagers.
Line 11:
A [[Reformulated Game|loose port]] was released for the Super Famicom titled ''Akumajō Dracula XX'' (as in "Double X") in 1995, which was released for the American Super NES as ''Castlevania: Dracula X'' and in Europe as ''Castlevania: Vampire's Kiss''. While the basic plot and game system remained identical to the PC Engine, the stages were all-new and a lot more linear (with only two hidden stages) due to the lower memory capacity of the cartridge format, and unlike the PC-Engine version, only Richter was playable.

* [[Above the Ruins]]: Subverted in Richter's ending. He watches the castle from an isolated cliff like most Castlevania endings, but the castle will not crumble. Played straight in Maria's game, though.
** But in the good ending of Dracula X Chronicles, the castle does fall whether you are Richter or Maria.
