Are there levels like an RPG, or are everyone’s abilities going to be the same? wazapyer321 asks if there will be a skill tree. Ruth: Let’s get started with the community questions. You want something cool enough to call it a ‘domain’. Vampires should have gorgeous halls, a bunch of servants, and an epic throne to cap it all off. Johan: Well, when you picture a classic vampire, who doesn’t imagine a big Gothic castle? We think having an epic lair is an essential part of the vampire fantasy, and we want to deliver on that by making your home part of the progression, which, I think, naturally ties into the survival genre. Ruth: You mentioned building and crafting, which is essential in a survival game. It’s more a survival game and less of an MMO, we have, from the beginning of this production, been aiming at creating more of a complete survival journey than a forever-changing MMO-style world.

We’re creating something new compared to our previous titles while sticking to our cherished WASD and skill shot controls. Players participate in castle building, crafting, and action-packed hack’n’slash combat set in an immersive and gothic flavored setting. It’s an open-world Survival and Action RPG hybrid that can be played either solo or side by side with bloodhungry friends. Johan: In V Rising, you awaken as a vampire after centuries of sleep, starting from almost nothing and building yourself up to become the next Dracula. Ruth: For our new readers, what kind of game is V Rising? Survival? MMO?

You can never get used to the roller-coaster emotions of releasing a game, but I’m ready! We are looking forward to finally opening the gates on May 17th. Johan: Hey! I’m excited and tense at the same time, and I’m sure that this goes for everyone in the studio right now.

Ruth: Hi Johan! We’re getting closer to the Early Access launch of V Rising! How does it feel? As always, keep in mind that V Rising is a game in development, and plans can suddenly change!

He will be answering some of my questions and pre-launch questions I collected from Discord and giving an update on what to expect from V Rising at the Early Access launch and beyond. We’re getting close to the release of V Rising, and it’s time for a final sit down with our Marketing Director Johan Ilves.
