Open-world vampire survival game V Rising has sold over five million units. Swedish developer Stunlock Studios thanks the community and plans to expand the game in 2025.

Since its launch (May 2024 on PC and June 2024 on PlayStation 5), V Rising has attracted five million players to the dark open-world vampire survival game. "Hitting 5 million sales isn't just a number, it's a testament to the passion and dedication of our team and our incredible community," said Rickard Frisegård, CEO at Stunlock Studios. "Our player's enthusiasm drives us to push boundaries and deliver even more unforgettable experiences. We're excited to build on this success and deliver thrilling new experiences and content in 2025."

Stunlock Studios is planning a major update for 2025, with a new biome, a new faction, and ancient technologies ready to be claimed. "Players can also look forward to a revamped progression system featuring stat caps, a Fusion Forge for crafting ultimate builds, and risk-free PvP options like dueling, customizable castle arenas, and much more," the developers said. V Rising is being developed by Stunlock Studios of Skövde, Sweden, also known for Battlerite (over 6 million unique players).
