Vampire Survivors – still vampire-free before you ask – has surprise-launched its brand-new Laborratory update – a “hyper realistic holiday themed” update so mindblowingly spectacular, developer Poncle is even going as far as to herald it a “AAAA” release.
The free Laborratory update (yes, with two ‘r’s) plunges players deep into the dark halls of a science lab – a “former pinnacle of weapons science, now overtaken by the forces of evil and a corrupted milk magician” – where one new character, one new secret character, three new weapons, and two new stages, including a bonus go-karting stage, because of course, await.
It’s an update that – and I’m quoting the developer directly here so don’t blame me if your sky-high expectations aren’t met – “pushes Vampire Survivors to such wild new heights that Poncle are calling it their first ‘AAAA’ update”. Expect such “industry-defining innovations” as “fully rendered running animations, mind-blowing train physics… and doors that open.”
