How to get all 3 endings in Castlevania: Belmont's Curse! This complete walkthrough shows how to unlock the Bad Ending, Normal Ending, and True Ending on a single save file, including every requirement needed to break Rose Belmont's curse.
Want the True Ending without missing an important step? You'll need to disable the Cursed Horologium, collect four special Arcana, complete the Four Virtues trials, defeat Rose's Doppelganger, and use Absolution at the right moment during the final Dracula encounter.
This guide walks you through all three endings in the recommended order: Bad → Normal → True. You can resume your save after the first two endings without starting a new playthrough.
SPOILER WARNING: This video contains major story spoilers, boss encounters, and ending requirements.
ALL 3 ENDINGS:
1. BAD ENDING – Belmont's Fall
Reach the Cursed Horologium at the Clock Tower Bridge, leave Death's trap active, and enter the false Master's Quarters. This unlocks the Bad Ending and Cursed's Outfit.
2. NORMAL ENDING – The Hunt Goes On
Defeat Death in Notre-Dame to obtain The Shadow Arcana and Soul Harvest. Use Soul Harvest to disable the Cursed Horologium, reach the real Master's Quarters, and defeat both forms of Dracula without Absolution.
3. TRUE ENDING – Curse Lifted
Collect The Warrior, The Judge, The Whisperer, and The Sage Arcana. Complete all four Virtue Trials in Notre-Dame, defeat Rose's Doppelganger, and unlock The Self Arcana. Equip Absolution and activate it after defeating Dracula's second form to break Rose's curse.
TRUE ENDING REQUIREMENTS:
• The Warrior Arcana – Joan of Arc
• The Judge Arcana – Saint Louis / Scales of Justice
• The Whisperer Arcana – Ferryman's Obol / Gate of Flesh
• The Sage Arcana – Eleanor / Four Mirror Seals
• Complete Courage, Temperance, Justice, and Prudence trials
• Defeat Rose's Doppelganger
• Unlock The Self Arcana and Absolution
• Disable the Cursed Horologium
• Use Absolution during the final ending sequence
