Wolf Team’s cult trilogy of Castlevania-esque side-scrollers El Viento, Earnest Evans, and Anett Futatabi will be re-released on the PS5 and PS4 next year.

The games, which originally deployed in the early 90s on SEGA CD and SEGA Genesis, are set to be redistributed as the Earnest Evans Collection, which is currently seeking crowdfunding in Japan. The target, at ¥5 million (~$32k), will likely be fulfilled, and has already raised more than 15% of its total.

We’d expect these to eventually get picked up and localised by a Western publisher, as the demand for retro compilations is quite high of late. Both El Viento and Earnest Evans originally launched in North America, although Anett Futatabi never released outside of Japan.
