The Vampire Survivors 1.8 update adds Adventures on December 6.
By James Carr on
Vampire Survivors is adding Adventures in its 1.8 update, coming to PC and Xbox on December 6. Adventures are small, «self-contained» stories that reset and remix the gameplay of Vampire Survivors. The update is also coming to the Nintendo Switch and mobile versions, but a later, unknown date.
The trailer for version 1.8, titled The Deeplorable Update, shows a taste of the Adventure mode. There are three Adventures shown in the trailer, A Garlic Paradise, World of Light and Dark, and Legacy of the Moonspell, with the last one only available for owners of the DLC of the same name. Each Adventure has over a dozen chapters, and has a limited selection of characters to choose from.

Now Playing: Vampire Survivors — v1.8 Adventures, Arriving 6th December!
The description states that the Adventures will reset the gameplay, which implies that your character unlocks and stat upgrades won't carry over, providing a new challenge for anyone that has cleared the main game prior to this update. It's not immediately clear how much new content will be in these Adventures, as the chapter shown reuses the original map, but there is a brief shot showing a new area and new NPC.
The announcement trailer also states that the «First Adventures» are out December 6, implying that more Adventures will be added in future updates or DLC. It also notes that the update is coming «soon» to Nintendo Switch and PC, so players on those platforms might not have to wait too long. Vampire Survivors Poncle also shared a «Chaos Roadmap» on X (formerly Twitter), teasing new items, with no dates or even a set release order.

Wild and weird action roguelike Picayune Dreams released from Early Access recently, meaning it's definitely time to enjoy this thing if you're a fan of horde survival roguelikes, bullet hells, or games that get all meta and screwy. Populated by a cast of surrealist 3D renders that look like rejected 1990s clipart and backed up with a very serious drum and bass breakcore soundtrack, this is an indie that's decidedly, committedly into a specific aesthetic.
What happens when the biggest indie game of 2020 meets the biggest indie game of 2022? We’ll find out soon enough, as Among Us is headed to Vampire Survivors in a piece of DLC titled Emergency Meeting.
