[summaraize]
Less than a year after V Rising was released (May 2024 on PC, Jne 2024 on PS5), Stunlock Studios has announced that the title has sold over five million copies!
The studio isn’t taking that success for granted, either. They vow to continue supporting the game with planned content, including an expansion to arrive later this year.
A Big V Rising Update Is Planned for 2025, Promising a Redefining Experience
Survival action RPG, V Rising. had quite a big 2024, as Stunlock Studios revealed today that the title has surpassed 5 million copies in sales across all platforms. Quite an incredible feat for the relatively small Sweden studio, especially considering some of the other big games released last year. However, the sales are well-earned, as the title currently has an impressive 89% positive score on Steam, with many critics being generally favorable to the title in reviews.
With that milestone reached, many were curious about what’s next for the studio, and it seems that they aren’t quite done with V Rising just yet, as they’ve confirmed new content arriving this year.
“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.”
The press release notes that a big update planned for 2025 will “redefine” the vampire experience. A brand-new biome, a deadly new faction, and ancient technologies will be confirmed. In addition to the new content, the game will receive several new updates focused on revamping progression systems, a new forge system, risk-free PvP options like dueling, customizable castle arenas, and much more.
I cannot wait to see what the studio cooks for V Rising in 2025! Let’s just hope the wait isn’t too long for the reveal.
