Press release:
Skövde, Sweden – January 26th, 2022.
The Skövde-based (Sweden) indie games developer Stunlock Studios are today very proud and happy to announce that their open-world vampire survival MMO game “V Rising”, has now sold over 3 million copies since its launch via Steam Early Access!

Players are flocking to the continent of Vardoran to get their gory thrills as they engage in the combat, world building and atmosphere of one of the most immersive vampiric experiences around. V Rising is currently sitting pretty with over 88% positive reviews from the 51,000+ available. Get your copy now on Steam!

“We’re delighted by the community’s response to V Rising and we are working hard to give back as much as possible. Their feedback and engagement has been invaluable, providing us with everything we need to continue improving and making sure we deliver on the expectations for our upcoming expansion of the game.

We can’t wait for everyone to experience V Rising in all its glory.” said Rickard Frisegård, CEO of Stunlock Studios.

This is what critics are saying about V Rising so far:

PC Gamer: “V Rising kept me playing all night … I’ve only played solo so far, but I’ve got a co-op date coming up and can’t wait to drain the world dry with a bud in tow.”

Rock Paper Shotgun: “V Rising really impressed, turning us from skeptics to obsessed in next to no time.”

PCGamesN: “…An immediate hit on Steam.”

Dexerto.com: “Combat is fluid and watching your influence (and castle) grow is incredibly satisfying.”

NME: “V Rising‘s toothy twist on Valheim brings enough fun to recommend in its own right.”

In V Rising, you need to survive as a newly awakened vampire in a world ruled by humans and rise to become the next Dracula. Feed on blood to gain new powers, hide from the scorching sun, and engage in real-time PvE and PvP combat set in a dark fantasy realm. Raise your castle and invite friends to join as you explore a vast open world, pillage villages, skirmish with bandits, and delve into the lairs of supernatural beasts. Attack other player’s castles, or become a diplomat in a game of blood, power, and betrayal.
