'The vision of a dark silhouette on the cliff-side, tall and spearing the sky with towers, easily takes a Vampire’s imagination to an entire world of possibilities.'

V Rising emerged from its coffin into early access in May last year and found an audience ravenous for a bit of survival-tinged bloodsucking. Developer Stunlock Studios has now announced that the game has sold over 3 million copies, pretty incredible figures for a PC-only indie title that isn't even fully released, and thanks to such success the ambitions for the future are high.and, at its beating heart, is your big ol' gothic castle.

One cannot help it but, in V Rising at the moment, one cannot do it either. You can currently build a sprawling one-floor castle, with players achieving height through the simple method of building on hills, so the studio's been prototyping how to implement castles with multiple levels. It says things may change and it's"a bit too early for promises" but at some point in 2023 players will be able to"build the castle of your dark dreams.

The world of Vardoran is also being expanded and overhauled with new enemies, visual upgrades, terrain variation, new bosses, and a whole new biome. There'll be a new marketplace feature that allows trading stations in settled zones, wagon vendors, and basically more ways to get rare cosmetics and gameplay items. Amusingly enough, some of them will be fine with selling to a vampire while, with others, you'll need to disguise yourself as human to get a deal done.

One of the quite sweet things about Stunlock is how conscious it is of what players like about V Rising, all those good vampire vibes, and its focus on improving that immersion with"little feel-good things like being able to sit in chairs, turn your lights on and off, name your castle, place signs, and being able to interact with your servants in more casual ways".
