They even made a special trailer you can watch that might give you a throwback or two. But it's not just fan service, as they have included a number of additions in content to spice things up.

Vampire Survivors – Space54 Update

Launching today for free, the Space54 update takes players on a tour through the delights and dangers of the cosmos! The update is a tribute to the Phaser framework, which was the original engine of Vampire Survivors. In this patch, there are a lot of fixes, too, including some optimizations that will let you play a run with Sammy for at least two more seconds than before!  Steam Achievements notes: this patch actually adds eight platform Achievements because it includes the Atlas Gate from the Adventures update!

  • 7 New Achievements

  • New Weapons
    • Pako Battiliar – May retaliate when losing health.
    • Phas3r – Pew Pew! Generates thin damaging zones. High Amount scaling.
