Vampire Survivors has been my go-to game for relaxing since I first encountered it, and I’ve avidly consumed both paid DLC that have been released thus far. That being so, I was delighted to hear that there would be a free update coming soon.
Now we know that the update is imminent. As in, it’s dropping on Thursday, October 19. Not too much longer then…
The news of this most welcome content drop comes via X (I still find it funny writing that), where developer Poncle re-shared the video for the new update, which is called Whiteout. We’re promised a new character, a new weapon, and “a frosty new stage.”
A promotional trailer is worth a thousand words, or something like that, so without further ado, I suggest you watch the offering below. I’ll be back with more on the new update in due course!
Vampire Survivors is included in our best roguelike games article, so click through for a selection of similarly excellent roguelite recommendations.

Still with me? Of course you are! If you want to keep reading about great hand-picked roguelikes, this website is absolutely chock-full of them. Head over to the Guides Page for a concentrated hit of roguish games, organised via sub-genre and platform.
What’s more, there are always going to be new lists for emerging trends as well as fresh titles to highlight. This is because my backlog is embarrassingly long, and so I’m always trying to balance the new games that arrive in my inbox with playing the stuff I already have.
