Press release:
Skövde, Sweden – 20th May 2024.
Swedish game developer Stunlock Studios has announced that the PlayStation 5 version of their open-world fantasy survival Action-RPG “V Rising” will be commencing pre-orders from today ahead of its launch on June 11th.

This follows V Rising’s 1.0 Steam launch on May 8th that was met with a hugely positive reception from both critics and the growing community of blood-suckers.

PlayStation 5 owners can finally sink their teeth into V Rising in its final form. Step into the shoes of a newly awakened vampire, construct your gothic castle, and explore an open world teeming with danger with seven regions to explore and 57 bosses to best.

Hunt for blood alone or unite with a clan, battling alongside fellow vampires online. Rise in power and face the ancient tyrant Dracula himself in a showdown of epic proportions to rule the night.
Partnering with Sony and with additional support from Auroch Digital, Stunlock Studios has focused on creating optimal PlayStation 5 gameplay with UI improvements, as well as DualSense game controller support.
