The action roguelike Vampire Survivors has received a few new additions for its DLCs and base game, improving the player’s overall experience.
Fans can expect new relics for the DLCs, Legacy of the Moonspell and Tides of the Foscari, which can be found in the areas: Mt. Moonspell and Lake Foscari. You can also pinpoint their exact locations by pausing your menu to search for their icon on the map.
Aside from these relics, the Bat Country’s Chaos Malachite has been tweaked for Mortaccio, allowing players to prevent him from morphing when he reaches level 80 rather than doing so automatically.
Another update showcases a more accessible reset save data function, but poncle recommends backing it up first. You can also look forward to a ton of bug fixes, including camera issues, DLC improvements, and Abyss Foccari wall position adjustments.
Fortunately, Vampire Survivors fans can anticipate even more improvements with the extensive v1.5 patch, set for mid-June. Keep in mind that it is subject to change, so you may need to wait for a later date as the developers continue to test the game’s performance.
If you love the Vampire Survivors soundtrack, the patch notes also revealed the live orchestra recording of the Tides of the Foscari by the Budapest Scoring Orchestra (Injustice 2, Get Out, Parasite.)
Luca ‘Poncle’ Galante, the creator of Vampire Survivors, discusses how the recording took over six hours to complete with 76 musicians. There are also some whimsical kazoo tracks to listen to on the OST on Steam and the game’s official YouTube channel, which he hopes to put on streaming services and Spotify.
For a complete overview of the 1.4.200 patch notes, here’s a look at the newest features:
