Press release:
Skövde, Sweden – April 18th 2024.
Swedish game developer Stunlock Studios has released the first gameplay trailer for Ruins of Mortium, the new endgame zone included in the upcoming full release of “V Rising”, which is coming to Steam on May 8th.

“V Rising” thrusts players into a vast open world where they must hunt for blood, build majestic castles, and engage in heart-pumping skill-based combat. As the story unfolds, players discover the legendary Dracula’s plot to reclaim his throne, triggering a cascade of challenges and dangers.

Enter the Ruins of Mortium, once the heart of the powerful Vampire civilization, which now lies in ruins, teeming with the cult-like remnants of Dracula’s forces. Players will encounter the Draculin, creatures tainted by Dracula’s influence, and face off against his loyal Vampire Generals.

While battling through his forces and disrupting dark rituals intent on reviving the ancient Vampire king, players will uncover ancient powers and prepare for the ultimate showdown against the tyrant himself.
