Castlevania: Belmont's Curse is a single-player game with no online component. Figures below come from Konami's own product listing and the storefront listings for the game. Release details are on Release Date and Platforms.

The single 10 GB storage figure in the PC requirements above is a conservative headroom number covering the largest edition, not a contradiction of the per-edition sizes. Konami publishes per-edition and per-platform figures; storefront requirement blocks publish one.

A keyboard-only option is available on PC.
DualSense support on PC works over USB only.
Custom volume controls and stereo sound.

Three accessibility features are listed on the storefront without being enumerated. Their contents have not been published.

Engine
Konami has not named the engine, and nothing in the published material identifies it. Inferring one from the studio's earlier work would be a guess, so none is recorded here.
Storefront Classification
The game is classified as Action and RPG on the Steam storefront, against Konami's own genre description of 2D Action-Exploration. Community tags applied to the listing include Metroidvania, Action RPG and Action-Adventure. Tags are player-applied and are useful for finding the game rather than being a statement about its design.
