V Rising News

In this dev blog, we take a closer look at the narrative behind V Rising and shed a bit more light on the story we told in the reveal trailer. It’s been important to our team to have a narrative foundation for our world.

When you play V Rising it will be you telling us your story, and we want to take the chance to introduce you to some of the broader details of the world you’ll be telling that story in.

“There was a way of things, a cycle. The men and women of the realms of humankind went about their way, learning, trading, building their great kingdoms and tall castles. Such grand things cast long shadows. In those shadows lived the other half of the cycle, the vampire. The puppeteers of humanity...”

[h2]New concept art and vampire design details revealed in Interview with Art Director Johan Wahlbäck[/h2]

This Dev Update is full of information regarding the atmosphere of the game, the design of characters, the gothic themes across the game’s architecture and the violent contrast between humanity and the bloodthirsty vampires. The art director warns that bloodshed is a key part of the vampire's visuals, but it is contrasted with their darkness and beauty.
