V Rising, the vampire survival game, achieves phenomenal success, surpassing 5 million units sold! Stunlock Studios, the developer, is celebrating this milestone and has exciting news for players: a major 2025 update is on the horizon.
This update promises to significantly enhance the V Rising experience. The game, released in early access in 2022 and fully launched in 2024, has already garnered praise for its engaging combat, exploration, and base-building mechanics. Its PS5 release in June 2024 further broadened its appeal.
Stunlock Studios CEO, Rickard Frisegard, emphasized that the 5 million sales figure represents the strong community built around V Rising, not just a number. This success, he stated, fuels the team's commitment to continued improvement and expansion.
The 2025 update will introduce a game-changing new faction, incorporating ancient technologies and a revamped progression system. Enhanced PvP options, including dedicated duel and arena modes (previewed in update 1.1), will offer safer competitive gameplay, preventing blood type loss upon death. A new crafting station will enable players to optimize endgame gear with stat bonuses. Finally, a challenging new northern region, extending beyond Silverlight, will introduce tougher bosses and fresh content.
In short, V Rising's 5 million sales mark a significant victory, and the planned 2025 update promises to redefine the game with substantial additions and improvements for players to enjoy.
