V Rising Hits Sales Zenith, Reaching Top Seller Status

V Rising, the vampire survival game, has achieved a remarkable milestone: exceeding five million units sold! Stunlock Studios, the developer, is celebrating this success and has unveiled ambitious plans for a major 2025 update.

This update promises to significantly expand the game, introducing a new faction, enhanced PvP options, and a wealth of additional content. Players can anticipate a revamped progression system, incorporating ancient technologies, and a new crafting station enabling stat bonuses for endgame gear.

The 2025 update will also introduce a substantial new region, located north of Silverlight, featuring more challenging encounters and formidable bosses. This expansion will significantly increase the game's overall size and replayability.

Initially released in early access in 2022 and fully launched in 2024, V Rising quickly gained popularity for its immersive combat, exploration, and base-building mechanics. Its June 2024 PS5 release further broadened its reach. Stunlock Studios CEO, Rickard Frisegard, emphasized that the five million sales figure represents the strong community built around the game, fueling the team's commitment to ongoing development and innovation. The 2025 update is poised to "redefine" the V Rising experience, building upon the game's existing strengths and introducing exciting new features. A preview of some of the new PvP duels and arena combat was showcased in November's Update 1.1, highlighting the focus on balanced and engaging player-versus-player interactions. The update will also allow for risk-free PvP encounters, preventing the loss of blood type upon death.
