It’s the end of the line for the excellent vampire survival game V Rising: Not quite two years after release, developer Stunlock Studios says “the journey to Dracula is a complete one as it stands,” and no further content updates are planned. The good news is that it’s working on something new instead, set in the same game world, that will be the studio’s “most ambitious project yet.”
Stunlock said V Rising is “an achievement built on years of work and decisions,” but while that effort has worked out very well, it’s also “limiting” in some ways: Decisions that made sense at the time “aren’t always perfect for ideas that emerge later.”
“We’ve been experimenting in ways we haven’t been able to for a very long time, exploring fresh ideas unbound by our previous limitations,” the studio wrote. “With the foundation of knowledge we built alongside you, we’re able to craft a bolder vision for the future of our Vampire world. Right now, we’re set about creating the architecture that can support our new and wild ambitions, and one we think will be able to support yours as well.”

The one bit of bad news is that official modding support isn’t going to happen. “After digging into it, we came to the conclusion that the game simply isn’t structured in a way that would allow us to provide mod tools at the standard we’d want for the community,” Stunlock said. Maybe in the next game, though: The studio said that what it learned while exploring the viability of modding support in V Rising “will prove valuable for our future schemes and our new focus.”
