Super Castlevania IV is a 1991 platform game developed and published by Konami. Released originally for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System, it has been re-released multiple times, including for the Super NES Classic Edition.
The game features expanded play control, 16-bit graphics featuring Super NES's Mode 7, and a soundtrack featuring new pieces and arrangements based on previous Castlevania music. Following the same setting as Castlevania on the NES, the game takes place in 1691 Transylvania, where the vampire hunter Simon Belmont must defeat the vampire Dracula.

Probably one of my favorite SNES soundtracks ever
Same!
I could watch a run of SCIV anytime and won't get tired of it.
Same it's a masterpiece
Still my favorite of the series. Like the versions of Bloody Tears and Vampire Killer the best too.
Congratulations on spelling “Bloody Tears” properly…
The more I watch this game, the more impressed I am by the work done in every level with such an unique pixel art.
This game features only 8 megs. This was practically nothing compared to the capacity of nowadays games. Still with that limited amount has a wonderful and very well composed and elaborated soundtrack. Features for the time very beautiful graphics and realistic sound. The only "but" that I would put is that is shorter and has a very relaxed level of difficulty, if you compare both with Castlevania III Dracula's Curse for example. Also is linear, unlike Dracula's Curse where you could pick different paths to get to the castle, changing the course of the story depending on your choices. Still, one of the best Castlevania games. A total masterpiece.
Epic music, epic game play, one of the best games on the SNES.
Symphony of the Night may be a masterpiece, but this game will always be the best.
Yeah, NAH, not even close
Classic Super Castlevania 4 damn i love this game
The music... Oh the music 🎶
The best catlevania ever made!
Rondo of Blood
May the elder gods protect u from living forest 🌴😱🌴 Shang shang, Shao shao, baraka, kintaro motaro, and resurected goro.
The best one was the one with robocop in it. You know the one!! 😉
For the SNES you mean.
Rondo and Symphony better
11:45 The point when I realized how amazing the SNES soundchip was when I was 13 years old the first time playing this game in the autumn of 1991.
Gotta love Castlevania games, with heroes so obssesed on fighting evil that if they dont slay a major monster before a certain amount of time they wil suffer a stroke and die, yet so polite that will also die if they dont take the stairs to a platform where they could just jump down to. :D
What a fun playthrough. I like the time spent exploring dead ends in the stages and things like the delayed vertical whip kill on the first boss. It captures the immersive side of this amazing game.
After over 30 years I never knew those creatures that fly out of the skull mountain at the very start actually come towards the screen. Bit daft you don't get to see them closer up because of the status bar :O
Arguably the best Castlevania. I never could reach the end, yet, but it is a challenging masterpiece.
I gave myself tendonitis in my hand when I was 11 from playing this game so much.

I think it's the best one. It's a classic style castlevania, challenging, but not stupidly unfair like the nes games and none of the silly rpg nonsense of the newer games.
Melhor jogo de SNES! Tudo nesse jogo é perfeito: gráficos, trilha sonora, jogabilidade, inimigos marcantes e um final simples, mas elevado... tenho essa fita completa na cx, é não troco e não vendo por nada nesse mundo 🌎 🌎 🌎
E enquanto isso estou frendo pra zerar o primeiro castlevania , pois para zerar os outros vou ter que começar com o primeiro para jogar os outros da franquia , por que vai me facilitar na hora e jogar os outros jogos
Esse jogo é uma lindeza mano. Quando começa o tema do Simon na luta contra o Drácula, pqp...
After the AVGN did his CV Retrospective series I HAD to buy and play this game for myself. And I did. Now I have the CV Anniversary Collection which includes it and Bloodlines, which I also owned and played years ago. Theyre both awesome!
The soundtrack is pure gold I love it 😀 the whole game is epic there should be a remaster
Ravenlord did an excellent job. Thank you for the great playthrough :D
One ironclad rule of video games - When an organ starts playing, s*** is about to hit the fan.
Slug..?
My favorite game from the SNES era. ^^ I have seen various speedruns of it, but I always enjoy watching it played through, and playing through it myself of course if I'm able to. :P
This game is amongst the tireless classics like Final Fantasy 7 and Resident Evil 2.
Looks better sounds better plays better than Rondo of Blood on PC Engine CD which is supposedly a pinnacle of videogames
@@worsethanhitlerpt.2539 have you played Ronod btw?
I love how this game is so good and the mode 7 chip makes the background pretty and cool and like the music is amazing 🤩
Meu jogo favorito de aventura dos 16bits ❤️
Man this brings back so many memories. What am awesome game. Hands down.
Amazing gameplay dude!
He still waits for his time, no matter how many centuries. He feels as if he has done this before, but where? where indeed.
I just looked at another playthrough of Castlevania and it was uncensored. It's amazing how blood can make a dungeon be even more unsettling, all I can say is Nintendo of America you guys really dropped the ball here censoring stuff. Any way great playthrough my dude once again you play like an absolute beast.
The return of Simon Belmont
Damn
May the elder gods protect u from living forest 🌴😱🌴 Shang shang, Shao shao, baraka, kintaro motaro, and resurected goro.
Both versions of the Castlevania games (SNES and Genesis)are way past awesome!!!
I love them both!!!!
The whip is so effective even on bosses that the sub weapons are practically useless
The best Castlevania and Symphony of the Night 😀😀 and Dracula X
Love it thanks!
Grande performance no melhor jogo da franquia.
One of the best games on the Super Nintendo and I’m looking to play it now that I have the Super Nintendo Classic Mini.
Eu amo esse jogo. Saudade!
Tuổi thơ của mình 😭
My all time favorite
One of my favorites of the franchise. I wish Konami would bring it back.
I absolutely love this game, but one thing I have to address: 49:07 I can't help but think this creature belongs in Contra rather than Castlevania.
The sole reason I rebought a SuperNintendo 5 years ago
Redoing the video, I see? That game has some awesome music!
Did they have the US version before? Thought it was just the EU ver. they had.
Dr Livesey is back with a vengeance
Who is him ?

I have to say, after 30 something years now, I never knew until today, that there was a hidden cross sub weapon @12:13. Holy buckets!!!
Muito show top demais
He jugado a practicamente todos los juegos de la saga, y con excepción de unos cuantos juegos que no me han gustado (la saga Lords of Shadow, Castlevania II Simon's Quest, los de Nintendo 64 y los de moviles), puedo decir que todos son excelentes títulos, bien sean en 2D o 3D. Si bien considero a SOTN como el mayor exponente y el epítome de la evolución de la franquicia, hay algo unico y muy diferente en Super Castlevania IV, algo que no tiene ningun otro juego de la franquicia, no solo su banda sonora es unica y tiene un feeling muy distinto al de los otros juegos (con el debido respeto de la excelentisima Michiru Yamane), sino que tambien su ambientación se siente mas rustica, tanto el apartado artistico como la construcción de niveles se siente de mucha antiguedad, visualmente es como mas arenoso, falto de detalles artísticos que muestren una evolución arquitectónica humana, de hecho, la recreacion estetica del castillo es muy absorbente y desorganizada, no hay indicios de modernidad, denota una ambientación de poca tecnologia, y en conjunto con su paleta de colores mas sobria, son un plus de distinción que le sienta de maravilla. No me malintrrpreten, no me refiero a que sea un juego limitado por la tecnología de la SNES porque no es eso, no hablo de calidad grafica, me refiero es a la construcción artística de niveles en general (de hecho, Dracula X de SNES si bien es una adaptación de Rondo of Blood, si se siente artistica y tecnologicamente mucho mas moderno que Super Castlevania IV, denota una epoca de mas evolución humana en el universo de la franquicia). Me hubiese gustado ver este tipo de arte rustico y primitivo en Lament of Innocence al ser el primer juego de la franquicia, infortunadamente creo que se ve incluso mas evoluciionado y no deberia ser asi (de nuevo, me refiero al estilo de arquitectura, vestimentas, tecnologia, etc, no me refiero a la evolucion grafica). Tanto Super Castlevania IV como Circle of the Moon son los dos únicos juegos de la franquicia que se sienten con un aura muy distinta, tienen un misticismo especial, hay algo en ellos que no puedo explicar bien con palabras pero siempre me atrapan a pesar de ser tan diferentes tambien entre si. A decir verdad, me gustaria algun dia ver otro juego de Castlevania cuya ambientacion y musica se sienta mas rústica y antigua, que parezca como una recreación de cine de terror de serie B de los años 70's y 80's, justo como Super Castlevania IV lo consigue.
43:15 Fred Ascare and Paula Abghoul.
Really hate those guys
Love the pun, hate the fight…
Everyone love the Soundtrack. No wonder the Soundchip in the SNES was made from Sony.
Trevor Belmont; the ORIGINAL Ghostbuster!! 👻🚫
I wonder if Super Castlevania IV is now considered canon, and very much retcons and replace the first NES game like how Metroid Zero Mission replace the actual first Metroid game.
29:37 the Genesis could also do this barrel effect but usually with only a fixed perspective and no 3D scrolling
Yeah, Mode 7 was kind of a big deal when the SNES came out. And it seemed like every game tried to find some way to use it. It was the "ray tracing" of its day, I guess.
One of the best game series that Nintendo ever made, along with Sony PlayStation.
Great game
Konami had captured lightning in a bottle several times with their IPs. Then they blew it all by firing developers like Kojima Hideo and emphasizing pachinko machines. Now they have to outsource development to get a half-decent game. How the mighty have fallen.
Fallen in who's estimation though? You and I look at it as a colossal failure, but Konami's stockholders have nothing to complain about, since Konami makes more money now than they did before they stopped developing games. Games development has a massive overhead, and high risk. Konami makes bank these days. Its sad that they don't really give a shit about the games anymore, but at the end of the day, they are a business, and making money is all that matters.
See, you and I think about art. Konami thinks about money. That's the difference between us and the investor class.
Around 38:05 there is a hidden room. Break the floor to reveal the stairs
This Game is available on steam

Borrowed the crap out of this game back in the day, only played and owned Castlevania 3.
Never played this before?

Belmont, frenc family. Vive la France fille ainée de l'Eglise !
I’ve gotten yay far in that game and I almost defeated Dracula
it would make for a more interesting video if you didnt cheese every boss
Have to ask in this comment section, what’s with the reuploads of past games? I’d know there was play throughs of this game in the past on this channel but why? Just asking.
probably better quality and encoding, is my guess.
Kawaii
Hhh you are the greeted
I never found this game to be particularly better than the nes ones, missing where the multiple paths, multiple characters from castlevania III as well as any rpg elements from castlevania 2 so how was the game better? graphics and sound i guess but aside from that i found it inferior, good game but not the best in the series for me.
Well it was intended as a remake of the first game so it's understandable that it lacks other characters and non linear elements of the other games.

Wrong game… Look up “Mortal Kombat”…
