Does that mean a possible (at least plot-wise) end for the series? 
Of course not.
The PS2 Castlevania takes place in the 11th century. Oddly, that will mean that it takes place before Sonia's battle with Dracula, possibly screwing up her story, which was about the first Belmont vampire slayer and how the Belmonts became a family of superhumans destined to keep Dracula locked away.
Spoiler (Highlight to view) -
According to Castlevania: Legends, Sonia's Game Boy Color game, part of the Belmonts' powers come from being descended from Alucard. Alucard is the father of Sonia's son, Trevor from Castlevania III. It seems that they also have their own powers though, since Sonia was strong enough to beat Dracula. So who knows.
End of Spoiler
I guess it doesn't really matter though, since the Castlevania timeline has already become somewhat screwed up. I guess they're trying to keep the plot inconsistencies down by moving the GBA series to the future and the PS2 series farther into the past. Hopefully one of the games will feature an actual sequel, since part of the appeal of SotN was that it had a developed cast of characters instead of a bunch of generic characters that were dragged in for a one-shot story (Circle of Moon, anyone?).
