V Rising, the vampire survival game, has achieved a remarkable milestone: surpassing 5 million units sold! Stunlock Studios, the developer, is celebrating this success and has exciting news for players. A major update slated for 2025 promises to significantly expand the game's offerings.
This milestone reflects not just impressive sales figures, but also the thriving community built around V Rising since its early access launch in 2022 and full release in 2024.

- Advanced Crafting: A new crafting station enabling players to leverage stat bonuses from items to create powerful endgame equipment.
- Expanded World: A new northern region beyond Silverlight, introducing challenging new environments, bosses, and adventures. This will significantly increase the game's explorable area.
Stunlock Studios CEO, Rickard Frisegard, emphasizes that this 5-million-unit sales figure represents the strong community they've fostered, fueling their commitment to ongoing development and innovation. The 2025 update is poised to "redefine" V Rising, promising a thrilling new chapter for players.
