Hello Hunters!
Iiiiiiiiiiiiiit’s… Tiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiime!!!!
We couldn't be more excited! This is the first major content update since the 1.0 release and it'll be amazing to see you all returning to Vampire Hunters!
We crafted this new content with a lot of love! We've been listening closely to your feedback, and this update is built around what you asked for the most. You'll be able to play in three new stages, each offering unique challenges and countless new strategies to try out!
Speaking of strategies, this update also introduces a ton of new constellations for you to mix and match, giving you even more ways to shape Vampire Hunters the way you want!
That’s not all: there are powerful new relics to help you push your runs even further. Your favorite characters have also received new signature relics that make them absolutely unstoppable.And of course, with new content comes new achievements! We had a blast designing (and unlocking!) them, and we’re sure you will too.
As always, a major content update also means a new leaderboard season, your chance to rise to the top and claim the spotlight! On top of all that, we’ve packed in tons of improvements, balancing changes, and quality-of-life tweaks. You can find the full list below.
We hope you have a blast with the new content!
Once a prison carved to contain the undead, this cursed hollow now burns with green fire. The forgotten Rune has been exposed, and their spirits rise to reclaim it.
Temple walls remain unfinished, abandoned by the priests before the ritual could begin. The Iron Maidens lie exposed, pulsing with ancient power.
Legends say a warrior once broke time training here. Now, the place is haunted by the fury of his unfinished technique.
