Prepare your fangs and sharpen your swords, as Stunlock Studios’ acclaimed vampire-themed online survival game, V Rising, is sinking its teeth into PlayStation 5 consoles on June 11. PlayStation enthusiasts will have the opportunity to pre-order the game now and gain early access starting June 6, five days ahead of its official release date.
The standard edition of V Rising for PS5 will be available at a cost of $40, while PlayStation Plus subscribers can enjoy a discounted price of $36. For discerning gamers seeking an elevated experience, the Legacy of Castlevania edition offers a trove of Castlevania-inspired cosmetics for a slightly higher price of $60.
If you crave the ultimate V Rising experience, the Complete Edition stands tall at $100, boasting a comprehensive collection of additional DLC packs, including the Sinister Evolution, Dracula’s Relics, and Eldest Bloodline packs. These packs primarily enhance the game’s aesthetics with captivating cosmetics, but they also introduce a variety of accessories and items to augment your gameplay.
While online play is an integral aspect of V Rising, PS5 players should note the requirement for PlayStation Plus membership to engage in online battles. However, if you prefer to hone your vampire skills offline, you can enjoy the game’s vast world without the need for online connectivity.
It’s worth mentioning that, as of now, crossplay between PS5 and PC players remains a distant possibility, according to a spokesperson from Stunlock Studios. This means that PS5 players will form their own community, separate from their PC counterparts.
Since its initial release in early access two years ago, V Rising has captivated a massive player base. The full version, which debuted in May, has further solidified the game’s popularity, consistently ranking among the most played games on Steam. With its expansion to PS5 consoles, V Rising is poised to quench the thirst of even more vampire enthusiasts, offering them a captivating and immersive survival experience.
