The highly addictive Vampire Survivors is getting a PlayStation release next week, hitting both PS5 and PS4 consoles. The reverse bullet hell survival game has been a hit on every platform it’s appeared on since it was first unleashed into this world by Poncle in 2021. Players have seen a number of huge expansions to the game, but it’s finally time for PlayStation players to jump in on the action.

Vampire Survivors launches across PlayStation consoles on 29th August 2024 and will bring every update and expansion that’s been released so far. This includes Legacy of the Moonspell, Tides of the Foscari and the recently released 1.11 The Darkasso patch. For a game called Vampire Survivors, there are currently zero vampires in the game.

For those new to the world of Vampire Survivors, players pick their character from a screen of 8-bit heroes. They’re then given 30 minutes to survive waves of enemies that shamble their way to the unsuspecting character. As players explore the stage and level up, will unlock weapons that automatically fire at the masses, the only input required is to move out of the way and make sure all the dropped loot is gobbled up.

The simple, yet satisfying experience has meant that Vampire Survivors has quickly gained a massive following and even three years after it first released, has been a game many come back to. The PlayStation update will look to boost the game’s appeal, which has already seen a tie-in with Among Us.

The most recent update to Vampire Survivors is the free Darkasso update. This is available across all platforms (including the PlayStation versions when it launches) and features:

  • 9 New Achievements
  • New Stage: Room 1665
    A hellish meat-dimension created by the spite of the souls that fell in the bone zone. A very tall Challenge stage made of 16 rooms and will challenge players to fight their way through all the floors of this devilish room.
  • 5 Darkanas to unlock
  • 2 new character skins
    • Unblinded Imelda
    • Retired Poe

Vampire Survivors is available on Android, iOS, PC (Steam), Nintendo Switch and Xbox now. The PlayStation 5/PS4 version hits 29 August 2024.
