V Rising, the vampire survival game, has achieved a remarkable milestone: surpassing 5 million units sold! Stunlock Studios, the developer, is celebrating this success and has announced ambitious plans for a major 2025 update.
This update promises to significantly expand the V Rising experience. Key features include a new faction introducing fresh gameplay dynamics, enhanced PvP options including dedicated duel arenas and safer PvP modes (preventing blood type loss upon death, as previewed in update 1.1), and a revamped progression system.
Further enriching the gameplay, the 2025 update will add a new crafting station enabling players to optimize endgame gear with stat bonuses. A substantial expansion to the game world is also planned, introducing a challenging new northern region beyond Silverlight, complete with tougher enemies and formidable bosses.
The 5 million sales milestone, according to Stunlock Studios CEO Rickard Frisegard, reflects the strong community built around V Rising, fueling the team's commitment to ongoing development and innovation. The 2025 update is poised to "redefine" the game, offering players a wealth of new content and experiences. The game's initial success, including its June 2024 PS5 launch (following a successful early access period and full release in 2024), has clearly laid a strong foundation for future growth.
