Traverse the world with vampire comrades or hunt solo as you pillage villages, raid bandits, and delve into the domains of supernatural beasts.

Raise your Castle
Gather resources and discover ancient techniques to uncover forgotten knowledge. Use your newly acquired insight to build a castle to store your loot and grow your army of darkness. Personalize your domain, exhibit your vampiric style, and make sure to craft coffins for servants and friends. Strengthen your castle to protect your treasure hoard from vampire rivals.
Compete or Cooperate
Travel alone or explore the world with friends. Fighting side by side with other Vampires will give you an advantage in the fight to conquer the greatest threats of Vardoran. Raid other players’ castles, play the diplomat in the game of blood, power, and betrayal, or craft an indomitable retinue of insidious allies. Compete or cooperate – the choice is yours.
Master your Vampire
Learn and master an arsenal of deadly weapons and unholy abilities. In V Rising, you aim skillshots and dodge projectiles using precise WASD controls and cursor-based aiming – no click to move.

Great game that's worth the price. Your progression is based almost entirely on bosses. Want to start collecting iron? Time to go kill the boss that allows you to start smelting iron. Not only that, but the boss also gives you an ability you can use. The base building is awesome, the combat feels great, and the overall aesthetic is really appealing.
The only negatives for this game are:
- Pacing is really great until you're about 15-20 hours in and things become quite a bit Grindy.
- Things take real-life time to be completed. Converting a villager into a vampire spawn? Okay, it will take you 5 hours. This can be changed in your own custom server if you wish
- PVP can be a negative for some people, especially since progression is based around the bosses you need to fight. The bosses are in the open world and therefore, are free game for anyone. It can be annoying when a really high level player is in the beginner zones farming resources, because they'll just kill you while you're trying to kill a boss. It can be very frustrating. However, there are also PVE servers if you aren't a fan of PVP. I personally enjoy PVP, but I can see how it might be a negative for others

excellent game! best game i have played in a long time, but when i play solo could it please not require constant internet? in south africa we have severe loadshedding which kills our routers etc, would be nice to play this on my laptop when the power is out to pass the time.

The game was already incredible prior to 1.0. I knew controller support was coming, but the fact that they implemented it so well blows me away. Can finally play this on my steam deck. Well done.

Game already felt finished when it was first made available to play in Early Access version. Puts quadruple "AAAA" studios to absolute shame. It only got better since then.

Basically if ARK: Survival Evolved and Diablo had a baby and that baby was big into Anne Rice novels.
