Vampire Survivors Directer’s Cut real says dev, lots more free DLC on the way

As if a couch co-op mode and a Switch release somehow wasn’t enough new Vampire Survivors stuff to be getting on with, developer Poncle has teased plenty more is still to come, confirming everything seen in a recent “Directer’s Cut” (yes, with an “e”) leak is real and on the way.

Images and footage of an unreleased Vampire Survivors Directer’s Cut build shown at a recent event began circulating earlier this month, and Poncle – writing in its update 1.6 release notes – has now acknowledged their existence, explaining, “That’s something we’ve been doing in most events (since TGS 2022): hiding some of the future content for the game in plain sight.”

While the developer says the menu screen – and presumably the “Directer’s Cut” name – featured in the leak might never actually appear in-game, everything else “is scheduled to be fully developed and released in future free updates.” There’s nothing like a public roadmap for Vampire Survivors’ new content yet, but Poncle confirms “dozens of characters and weapons” are in development for “2023 and beyond” – and to accompany the news, it’s shared a teaser trailer giving some of that new stuff a first official airing.
