"Rather than running around the map to collect gems to level up and unlock or upgrade auto-firing weapons, Vampire Crawlers has a different format. It's set in the same world as Vampire Survivors and each of the playable characters is in the original game. You'll put together decks of attacks and other abilities to help you on your journeys through dungeons. There's a card customization feature too."
"Development of Vampire Crawlers started soon after Vampire Survivors hit early access and blew up in 2021. Poncle founder and CEO Luca Galante told that this is hopefully the first in a series of spinoffs in which "the idea is to take some of the core pillars behind the development of VS and to apply them to existing genres." Galante hinted that a Vampire Survivors sequel is in the works too."
Vampire Crawlers is a dungeon-crawling roguelike deckbuilder set in the same world as Vampire Survivors. Playable characters from the original game return as selectable protagonists. Players assemble decks of attacks and abilities and can customize cards to shape runs through procedurally generated dungeons. The format replaces the original's gem-collection and auto-firing weapon upgrade loop with card-based progression and strategic choices. Development began soon after Vampire Survivors' 2021 early access success. Poncle positions the title as the first in a series of genre-spanning spinoffs, and development on a Vampire Survivors sequel is hinted. The game targets 2026 across major platforms and Game Pass.
