New V Rising trailer shows off castle construction

V Rising

Stunlock Studios have released a new trailer for V Rising, this time focusing on the game’s castle building mechanics.

V Rising is a sandbox survival action-RPG where players control a newly reawakened vampire. The game places a big emphasis on surviving in a dangerous gothic fantasy world as you slowly regain your powers, and constructing castles is a big part of this. Players will have to harvest resources so they can build massive fortresses to fend off vampire hunters and angry peasants, and each castle will feature important amenities like crafting stations.

You can find the new trailer below.

In case you missed it, you can find the game’s previous Gothic World trailer here.

You can find a rundown (via Steam) below:

V Rising

A Vampire Survival Experience

Awaken as a weakened vampire after centuries of slumber. Hunt for blood in nearby settlements to regain your strength while hiding from the scorching sun to survive. Rebuild your castle and convert humans into your loyal servants in a quest to raise your vampire empire. Make allies online, fend off holy soldiers, and wage war against other players in a world of conflict.

Will you become the next Dracula?

A Gothic Open-World
Explore a vast world teeming with mythical beings and danger. Travel through lush forests, open countryside, and dark dungeons to discover valuable resources, meeting friends and foes alike along the way. Traverse the world with vampire comrades or hunt solo as you pillage villages, raid bandits, and wander into the domains of supernatural beasts.

Fear the light – Rule the night
Stick to the shadows during the daytime, or the burning sunlight will turn you to ashes. Roam the night and prey on your victims in the darkness. As a vampire, you must quench your bloodlust and plan your strategies around the day/night cycle.

Raise your Castle
Gather resources and discover ancient techniques to gain dark powers. Use your newly acquired knowledge to build a castle where you can store your loot and grow your army of darkness. Personalize your domain, exhibit your vampiric style and make sure to craft coffins for servants and friends. Strengthen your castle while the threat from other players is rising.

Compete or Cooperate
Travel alone or explore the world with friends. Fighting side by side with other vampires will give you an advantage in your battle against the strongest creatures and most powerful humans. Raid other players’ castles or play the diplomat in the game of blood, power, and betrayal. Compete or cooperate – the choice is yours.

Master your Vampire
Learn and master an arsenal of deadly weapons and unholy abilities. In V Rising, you aim skill-shots and dodge projectiles using​ precise​​ ​WASD controls ​and cursor-based​ ​aiming – no click to move. Tailor your play-style by combining melee or range weapons with a variety of powerful spell kits. Master your skills and unleash your wicked powers.

V Rising is set to launch via Early Access on May 17th for Windows PC via Steam.
