Vampire Survivors “Laborratory” Update Adds New Bonus Stage, Character, and More

poncle’s Vampire Survivors is gearing up for some Contra collaboration DLC next week, but for now, a free new update is available. Version 1.10 “Laborratory” adds seven new Achievements, a new Challenge Stage, a new Bonus Stage and a new character. Check out the trailer below to see it all in action.

Players can also look forward to a new weapon (complete with an evolution), a new passive weapon, and the new Seal 3 power-up. The Challenge Stage is the titular Laborratory, where “everything is trying to kill you.” Levers adorn the stage, some triggering “mostly positive effects” based on your Luck (which may include the new train that mows down hordes). You can also obtain weapons and passives.

The Bonus Stage, Carlo Cart, is more noteworthy since you’re on a mine cart and can’t stop moving. Slowing down is still an option, though, and while it doesn’t provide any unlocks, it’s a unique experience.

Vampire Survivors is available for Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, PC, Android, iOS and Nintendo Switch. It’s coming to PS4 and PS5 later this year.
