The Game Pass for PC port will also receive the v1.0 update simultaneously as the Steam version. It will leave Game Preview sometime soon after with various minor updates, including adding achievements.
The content of the launch update will be revealed soon, but rest assured, we’ve still got some surprises in store. Today Poncle can confirm there will be gameplay tweaks (see patch notes) and that the v1.0 version of Vampire Survivors will be available in various new languages. The complete list of v1.0 languages is English, French, Italian, German, Spanish, Polish, Portuguese, Turkish, Russian, Simplified Chinese, Korean, and Japanese!
Poncle will also post daily teasers and spoilers about the 1.0 update on their social media channels for the 14 days leading up to launch. This “Advent Calendar” will begin on October 7th.
Quote from the Developer:
“I started making Vampire Survivors at the peak of the pandemic after working for a popular burger chain and later as a web developer, because I wanted something to play in the evenings for myself. The attacks are designed to be automic so that the player can concentrate on something else while playing and just have a good time,” said poncle founder Luca Galante. “I never thought Vampire Survivors would become such a big hit. It’s really an indie dream come true! I can’t wait until players can see the surprises we have planned for the full launch day!”
