Stunlock Studios’ V Rising exits early access next month for PC, and while the Legacy of Castlevania content is getting attention, the launch update features tons of other new content. It includes the Ruins of Mortium, an end-game zone where players battle the Legion of Noctum, Dracula’s generals and eventually the head bloodsucker himself.
Some new gameplay is available, showcasing the various enemies and bosses players will face. Though it doesn’t explain the unique parts of Mortium, the official website describes the area as rife with dynamic conflict events. By defeating the Noctum and clearing Rifts, players can “exclusive” resources, perhaps to craft new, more powerful weapons and armor.
V Rising launches on May 8th for PC and is coming later this year to PS5. Other features in the launch update include new points of interest in Farbane Woods, traveling humans with precious cargo, three difficulty options, improved magic, new weapons and armor, and much more.
