Invaders of Oakveil: The big update for V Rising is here - Trailer

Update 1.1 for V Rising, called ‘Invaders of Oakveil’, has been released for the game. And this much can be said: turbulent vampire nights are on the programme.

The Oakveil Woodlands are a dense, corrupt forest where nature no longer wants to play along. There are overgrown paths, dark secrets and, above all, an invasion led by Megara, the Snake Queen, and her faction, the Venom Blades. Get ready for battle against toxic and devious enemies who use dark rituals and poisonous juices galore.

And that's not all. This major update brings three new weapons (claws, twin blades, throwing daggers), seven new spells, an equipment customisation system with the Fusion Forge and even a new blood type ‘Corrupted’ to open up builds for more variety. Developer Stunlock Studios is spicing up the PvP modes with the ‘Contests’: 1v1 duels via the duel banner or team battles in customisable arenas directly in your castle.

Whether you're re-entering V Rising to explore, optimise builds or just beat up bosses, Oakveil promises long nights full of surprises... and danger. and dangers. Get into your capes, the hunt continues, and it's a good thing too, because V Rising is down to $15.49 / £12.99 for a limited time on Gamesplanet.
