Experience a Vampire Survival Action RPG adventure like no other.
Awaken as a weakened Vampire after centuries of slumber. Hunt for blood to regain your strength while hiding from the scorching sun to survive. Build a mighty castle worthy of your name and convert humans into loyal thralls to serve your growing empire. Pillage villages, raid bandit camps, and challenge supernatural beings, drinking their blood to steal their power. Make allies or enemies online or play solo locally and wage war in a world of conflict.
Seize your destiny, defy Dracula, and rise as the ultimate predator to rule the night!
Now with native gamepad support and a reimagined interface, prepare for action-packed, hands-on gameplay!
Explore a vast world teeming with mythical horrors and danger. Travel through lush forests, open countryside, and dark caverns to discover valuable resources, meeting friends and foes alike along the way. Traverse the world with vampire comrades or hunt solo as you ravage villages, fend off holy soldiers, and challenge supernatural bosses.
Stick to the shadows during the daytime, or the burning sunlight will turn you to ashes. Roam the night and prey on your victims in the darkness. As a vampire, you must quench your thirst for blood while planning your strategies around the rising and setting sun.
Gather resources and discover ancient techniques to uncover forgotten knowledge. Use your newly acquired insight to build a castle to store your loot and grow your army of darkness. Personalize your domain, exhibit your vampiric style, and make sure to craft coffins for servants and friends. Strengthen your castle to protect your treasure hoard from vampire rivals.
Travel alone or explore the world with friends. Fighting side by side with other Vampires will give you an advantage in the fight to conquer the greatest threats of Vardoran. Raid other players’ castles, play the diplomat in the game of blood, power, and betrayal, or craft an indomitable retinue of insidious allies. Compete or cooperate - the choice is yours.
Learn and master an arsenal of deadly weapons and unholy abilities. In V Rising, you aim skillshots and dodge projectiles using precise WASD controls and cursor-based aiming - no click to move. Tailor your vampire to fit your play style by combining weapons with a variety of spells earned through vanquishing powerful foes. Find and master your personal, perfect blend of sword and sorcery to become the ultimate nocturnal predator!

RAWRRR AYM NYAMPIREEEE
Good game. I suggest changing the servers resource gathering multiplier to higher though if playing PVE.
Muito show e complexo! Ideal para quem gosta de jogo de RPG + sobrevivência.
El juego se me hizo fácil por que se trata de succionar la mejor, memoria muscular.
O jogo é mt bom. Lindo e excelente. Todavia não gosto da mistura de farmar (minerar, coletar plantas, pescar) com boss fights. Tenta encontrar um meio termo entre stardew valley e hollow knight, mas não gostei tanto da abordagem. Ainda assim o jogo tem uma nota maior q 8 em minha visão. Comprei pq sou um fan do falecedo game Battlerite dessa empresa, e esse jogo reacendeu mt do Battlerite.
[h1]V Rising: A Gothic Masterpiece of Survival and Action Combat[/h1] [i]V Rising is a phenomenal achievement in the survival genre, masterfully blending top-down action-RPG combat with deep base building and vampire lore. Developed by Stunlock Studios, this game successfully avoids the typical survival pitfalls by making you feel like a powerful predator reclaiming your empire, rather than just another weakling trying to stay alive. With its fluid mechanics, rich atmosphere, and highly rewarding progression, it stands as an absolute must-play for fans of both survival games and action RPGs alike.[/i] [h2]🧛 The Vampire Power Fantasy and Atmosphere[/h2] The atmosphere in V Rising is brilliantly dark and gothic. From the sun-dappled forests to the grim, foggy farmlands and cursed woods, the world feels incredibly alive and dangerous. What makes the game truly stand out is how it forces you to adapt to being a vampire: the sun is your absolute enemy, and navigating the shadows during the daytime turns simple travel into a tense, thrilling puzzle. The visual style is crisp and stylized, perfectly capturing the moody, blood-soaked aesthetic of a dark fantasy realm. [h2]⚔️ Combat and Blood Types[/h2] Combat is heavily inspired by Stunlock's previous arena-shooter pedigree, meaning it is fast, fluid, and completely skill-based. Utilizing a mix of directional skill-shots, dashes, and weapon abilities, every encounter feels incredibly engaging. The "Blood Type" system is a stroke of pure genius. Feeding on different targets—like a rogue, a brute, or a worker—grants you unique, dynamic buffs based on the quality of their blood. This turns hunting into a strategic choice, as you actively scout for the perfect prey to boost your specific playstyle. [h2]🏰 Castle Building and Raiding[/h2] The base-building mechanic is exceptionally rewarding. Instead of just throwing together a simple wooden shack, you erect a massive, multi-floor gothic castle complete with grand pillars, blood fountains, and production workshops. Watching your domain grow from a small coffin in the woods into a sprawling fortress is intensely satisfying. Managing your territory, defending it from rival players (on PvP servers), and commanding your own vampire servants to gather resources gives you the genuine feeling of being a dark lord ruling over the land. [h2]⚠️ Drawbacks[/h2] While the game is incredibly polished, the resource grind can become quite intensive, especially in the late-game stages where crafting top-tier gear requires massive amounts of rare materials. For solo players on public servers, progression can feel significantly slower and punishing if caught in the crosshairs of larger clans. Additionally, the progression relies heavily on defeating specific V Blood bosses, which can occasionally feel like a rigid checklist rather than organic exploration. However, these factors take very little away from the stellar core loop. [h2]🏆 Conclusion[/h2] V Rising is a shining example of how to perfectly execute an early-access-to-full-release journey. It successfully combines the tactical depth of an ARPG with the addictive loop of a survival builder, wrapped in an unforgettable vampire fantasy. Whether you are dodging sunbeams, hunting powerful bosses for their magical abilities, or expanding the walls of your majestic castle, the game offers hundreds of hours of high-quality entertainment. It is an incredibly rewarding indie titan that deserves a permanent spot in your collection. [h3]Rating: 9.5/10[/h3]
its like ok tye shi
Very good for single player even though it seems intended for group play. The castle building is fun to test the limits of, and there is a lot to do for crafting.
Great game, I have been playing with my wife, we have been having lots of fun
