V Rising is a tantalising survival action-RPG that’ll keep players wholly invested thanks to its compelling combat, satisfying sense of progression, and brilliant multiplayer mechanics. I’ve adored playing the game with a group of friends and building impressive castle bases to lord over the land of Vardoran from, whilst each enemy I vanquish and piece of progress I make invests me further into the world. I’ve put in a ton of hours over the last week, but believe me, I’m nowhere near done with it yet. It’s newbie friendly too, so don’t be intimidated by the many mechanics at play. Be warned though: the other players in the world are bloodthirsty vampires too, and they won’t be afraid to cause you harm.

V Rising is one of the best, most polished and also very unique survival games currently on the market. If you have been looking for something that has an extensive progression system, grueling boss fights or interesting exploration, this is the game for you!

V Rising is an open-world online survival game with a theme that is as atypical as it is attractive. We will play a vampire who after a long slumber awakens to try to recover the domains that were once his, although to do so he will have to start from scratch, both to recover his power and to create his own castle. The game is very well designed and has very well resolved gameplay. Maybe we can say that V Rising is too linear, which it is, or that it almost lacks PVE post-game, but many hours of fun await us as soon as we get our hands on it.

V Rising is a great open-world survival that brings in a highly gothic vampire element. Unlock new forms and fight your way to the top of the food chain by killing boss after boss. Take it even further with the Secrets of Gloomrot expansion and explore new technological wonders that are available alongside thirteen new bosses. Whether you just stay near your base to build or venture out into the wilds to hunt down vampire hunters and other bosses is entirely up to you.

V Rising and its latest major expansion, Secrets of Gloomrot might become the next major hit with its unique survival and building mechanics, but also the combat system. The Gloomrot area, in particular, is a shocking change of pace and scenery while bringing a whole new set of challenges to face off against. However, it also brought in a lot more for the vampires who like to stay at the castle and decorate.
