About V Rising
About this game
UPDATE 1.1: INVADERS OF OAKVEIL IS AVAILABLE NOW!
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!
A Gothic Open-World
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.
Fear the light - Rule the night
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.
Raise your Castle
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.
Compete or Cooperate
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.
Master your Vampire
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!

This game is really fun. It has a Diablo-esque feel to it, as well as, elements of Valheim and Conan. It has a different "feel" than other games, because of the nature of the character you play. The "threats" you will encounter make it more of a challenge to survive, and you begin to play the game differently than other survival type games.

V rising really disappointed me. For one, it is different to what i had expected from the video and screenshots of the game (those are later in game) because you start at the very bottom and working your way up is very very tedious and grindy. In theory it is quite a nice idea to start with nothing and building your kingdom from the ground but even the first two hours of playtime weren't fun because of really strong bosses that spawn a ton of minions, having to gather endless amounts of ressources to build the castle (50 wood for one plank, you get about 70 wood from one tree), enemies respawn way too quickly, daytime is pretty much wasted time because in the beginning you aren't equiped to work around it so you just end up idling in the shadows for 5-10 minutes, ... I also feel like the game could explain a bit more, maybe i am used to games that hold your hand a bit more but if you are new to this kind of game you are basically thrown in at the deep end and expected to start swimming immediately.

An innovative game that combines base building, RPG and vampires! The game may not look like much at first. But once you get to learn about the game more, the experience becomes addictive, making you want more content.
Free expansion is going to be released in May 2023. It's a good time to pick up this game!
