The vampire survival game, V Rising, has achieved a remarkable milestone: exceeding five million units sold. Stunlock Studios, the developer, celebrated this achievement and unveiled ambitious plans for a substantial 2025 update, promising a wealth of new content and features.

V Rising's journey to this impressive sales figure began with its 2022 early access launch, culminating in a full release in 2024. The game's captivating blend of combat, exploration, and base-building mechanics resonated strongly with players, leading to its successful expansion onto the PlayStation 5 in June 2024.

Stunlock Studios CEO, Rickard Frisegard, highlighted the dedication of his team and the strong community built around V Rising. He emphasized that the five-million-unit sales milestone signifies more than just a number; it represents the passionate fanbase that fuels their continued development efforts. Frisegard confirmed that exciting new experiences and content are planned for release in 2025.

A 2025 Update That Will "Redefine" V Rising

The upcoming 2025 update promises a significant expansion of the game's content, including:

• New Faction: Players will encounter a completely new faction, adding depth and intrigue to the existing lore.
• Enhanced PvP: Improved PvP options will be introduced, including new duel mechanics and arena-based PvP, as previewed in update 1.1. This will allow for structured PvP combat without the usual penalties of losing blood type upon death.
• Advanced Crafting: A new crafting station will enable players to leverage stat bonuses from items, creating opportunities for powerful endgame gear.
• Expanded World: A vast new region, situated north of Silverlight, will expand the game world, introducing more challenging environments, formidable bosses, and fresh content to explore.
