- Death Parade: Dev Update #2 - 21 September 2026
Hello again, my fellow Vampire Survivors Crawlers, It is I, Marthello, your very serious community manager.First things first. Development on the mobile version of Vampire Crawlers is going well, and it’s still planned for release in 2026. But on to Death Parade. Last time, we discussed throwing away cards on purpose. This time, we’re going to talk about the new stage and explain very little about why the patch is called Death Parade. A few spoilers ahead.Welcome to MoongolowSome of you already spotted it in the last post, so yes: Death Parade also adds Moongolow, a new challenge stage built around limited hands and discarding.On your first visit, the new Relic that caps how many cards you can hold will already be active, and Moongolow will guide you through some of what Death Parade has in store. If you complete the stage once, your future visits will play a little differently. You’ll…
- Death Parade: Dev Update - 28 August 2026
Hello my fellow Vampire Survivors Crawlers, I’m Marthello, your new, very serious community manager. It’s nice to meet you all, but enough with the pleasantries. My first task is to deliver a very serious update: Death Parade is taking longer than expected. We’re sorry. Development is moving along, but rather than stay quiet until it’s finished, we thought we’d show you some of what’s on the way.Not all of it, obviously. That’s not how previews work.Discarding cards on purposeOur roadmap already mentioned that Death Parade would introduce limited hand sizes and discarding. The limit comes from a new Relic, NAME REDACTED, which caps how many cards you can hold. Simply giving you fewer cards wasn’t particularly interesting, so we’ve been adding new ways to manage exploit a smaller hand and started turning discarded cards into something you can build around. For example:Sir AmbrojoeSir Amb…

- Vampire Crawlers finds the perfect balance between strategy and automation, and it gives me that Survivors feeling all over again - 5 May 2026
It's impossible to talk about Vampire Crawlers without referencing Vampire Survivors, so let's get it over with. The optimal way (and I won't hear otherwise) of playing Vampire Survivors is to get so powerful that the game plays itself. I want to put the work in, so I don't have to work at all. After playing Vampire Crawlers for around 20 hours, I can tell you that it's the same thing here.

- 1 million Crawlers in 1 week - 29 April 2026
Hello,First of all, thank you to everyone who has been playing Vampire Crawlers since launch.The game released on April 21 on Steam, Nintendo Switch, Xbox, and PlayStation, with 1 million users in its first week. That is obviously a ridiculous number, and as our first Vampire Survivors spin-off, it means a lot to us. Vampire Survivors began as a very small, very strange project, and over time it grew into something much bigger than we ever expected. Vampire Crawlers is the first time we’ve tried to take those same core ideas and push them into a completely different genre. So thank you for trusting us enough to come along for that, and for the overwhelming response. 🟢We've just released Hotfix 1.4.1 with the following fixes:Fix a crash caused by a Gatti Amari scuffle happening as an encounter endsFix a save slot error that could occur if a brand new player exited before the tutorial fi…

- Let’s Explore Vampire Crawlers | Episode 4 and 5 - 20 February 2026
Hello Vampire Survivors Crawlers!Today we have a couple more episodes of Let's Explore Vampire Crawlers: one about Character Card Triggers, and another about exploration. Character Triggers and Card types- Like all cards, Character Cards have an immediate, straightforward effect when played. But the characters will also stay a bit longer and fight with you, with their lingering passive Triggers. Triggers react when you play a card of their respective color, allowing you to activate all sorts of bonuses and effects. For example, by going on a crawl together with Poe, Suor Clerici, and Mortaccio, playing a simple "Armor" card will also let you draw 1 card, gain 1 Amount, and recover health! Explore Maps, Find Treasures- As you unlock more game mechanics, the Village will also expand, giving you new ways to spend your gold. By exiting the Village, you reach the World Map, from where you ca…
- Let’s Explore Vampire Crawlers | Episode 2 and 3 - 6 February 2026
Hello Vampire Survivors Crawlers! Today we have a couple more episodes of Let's Explore Vampire Crawlers: one about a core gameplay mechanic, the Combo Multiplier, and another about the quirks and details of Character Selection. Combo Multiplier- Play cards in ascending mana cost to increase the Combo Multiplier and therefore multiply the effectiveness of every card. Use Wildcards to bridge the gaps and create insanely long chains! https://youtu.be/0XRi8ddiK34 Character Selection - Every character comes with a different starting deck and base stats. As you progress through the game, you'll be able to have up to 3 characters in your party, so that you can always bring your favourite character without having to sacrifice stat boosts. https://youtu.be/v2PFnInWOYg We’ve only scratched the surface of character selection! Stay tuned for our next update, where we dive deep into Character Cards…
