Vampire Survivorsdeveloper poncle has unveiled the game’s first full-on DLC, a trip to an alternate dimension inspired by feudal Japan entitledLegacy of the Moonspell. Set to come out later this month, the expansion will add a brand new stage, new characters, new monsters, and more than a dozen new weapons to go ham on them with.
The Steam page for Legacy of the Moonspell is vague, yet appropriately ominous:
“In eastern lands, a clan has fallen. The Moonspell, once vigilant guardians of a sorcerous valley nestled in the mountains, have been overrun by hordes of yokai and oni. Though treacherous, this hive of spectral activity may provide some clue as to the location of a vampire. If not, at least it’ll be entertaining to defeat thousands of wayward spirits in the process.”
Fortunately, it does provide some specifics. Legacy of the Moonspell will add eight new characters to the game, including:
And 13 new weapons, among them:
The new stage, Mount Moonspell, is Vampire Survivors' largest yet, with several different environments including an abandoned castle, a snow-covered mountain, and a yokai-infested village, each with unique challenges to face and monsters to slaughter. Naturally, there is also an allusion to “hidden mysteries” to ferret out, and for those who enjoy such things, the DLC will also add a half-dozen new music tracks to the game.
