All you can do is survive as long as you can until death inevitably puts an end to your struggles. Gather gold in each run to buy upgrades and help the next survivor. Mow down thousands of night creatures and survive until dawn! Vampire Survivors is a gothic horror casual game with rogue-lite elements, where your choices can allow you to quickly snowball against the hundreds of monsters thrown at you.

The genre-defining "be the bullet hell" action game launched into Steam Early Access in December 2021 and became a viral hit. Since then Vampire Survivors has grown to the third highest rated game on Steam, with over 170,000 user reviews (98% overwhelmingly positive), continues to be one of the most played game on Steam Deck, was featured on the New Yorkers "Game of the Year" list and holds a Metacritic score of 95 (Xbox).
