Vampire Survivors DLC Release Time, Date, Price & Content

The smash indie survival/roguelite game from developer Poncle, Vampire Survivors, has gone from strength to strength following its move from Early Access into a full release on 20 October 2022. After winning two BAFTA awards, including "best indie game," Vampire Survivors' second DLC, entitled Tides of the Foscari, was announced.

This article explains everything you would possibly want to know about the new Vampire Survivors DLC Tides of the Foscari, from the exact release date and time to the price and all the content, such as new weapons and characters you will be able to experience.

Update on 13 July 2023: With the second Vampire Survivors DLC out now, we wait patiently for info on DLC 3, and will update you as soon as we know more.

Vampire Survivors DLC 2 Release Time & Date Countdown

The second Vampire Survivors DLC will release on 13 April 2023 on PC, Xbox, and mobile platforms. At the time of writing, the exact launch time is unknown for each platform.

We do, however, speculate that the Vampire Survivors Tides of the Foscari DLC will release at roughly 15:30 UTC on PC, based on the update history for the previous two patches on Steam.

We will endeavor to update this section if an official release/launch time per platform for Vampire Survivor DLC 2 becomes available. 

Vampire Survivors Tides of Foscari DLC Price

While Vampire Survivors itself is free for those with an Xbox Game Pass subscription and free for mobile devices, the Tides of Foscari DLC, filled to the brim with content, is not.

According to a blog post by Poncle on Xbox Wire, the second DLC for Vampire Survivors will set you back $1.99 USD.

Vampire Survivors Tides of Foscari Story

The new Vampire Survivors DLC features a fairy-tale type story, as players venture deep into a forest and the Foscari Academy, which can neither "confirm nor deny the presence of vampires." Yes, we all know where this is heading. Check out an official description for the Vampire Survivors Tides of Foscari story below.

Nestled deep within a continent-sized forest is Foscari Academy, a school where the elite of the world train their children for careers as powerful wizards, indefatigable generals, and expert spies. The Academy is divided into three houses, a premise hitherto untouched in all of fantasy fiction. Three students, one from each house, brave the journey into a forest stuffed with mythological creatures, all to have a jolly adventure, with absolutely nothing interrupting the whimsy. This is all mind-blowingly original stuff, we know, but it only gets better folks.

While we are already sold and can't wait to take a bite out of this DLC, if you need more convincing, our next section features the content you can expect to find for the mere price of $1.99 USD.

Vampire Survivors DLC 2 Content: Characters, Weapons & More

There's a whole lot of content in the new Vampire Survivors DLC, from characters to weapons and even music tracks, achievements, and more. An overview of the content can be seen below:

Vampire Survivors DLC Characters Revealed:

• Eleanor - Star pupil of The Azure Tower and a skilled magic user, Eleanor is as bright as she is shy.
• Maruto - Undefeated champion of The Crimson Anvil. Stern, brooding, but with a heart of gold beneath his scowl, Maruto is a man of few words and strong arm.
• Keitha - Sly, quick-witted, and fun loving, Keitha will do anything for a bit of adventure and levity. Deliberately stays near the bottom of class rankings in The Amber Sickle to avoid hassle.
• Luminaire - The guardian of Lake Foscari, Luminaire is an ancient witch of great power and pure heart. Known in stories as the Lady of the Lake, or sometimes the Arboreal Mistress.

DLC Character Weapons:

• SpellString - Eleanor’s trusted textbook, sure to provide the answers on any magical topic that might cross her path.
• Eskizzibur - Forged by Maruto’s blacksmith uncle as a jape, but to his surprise his young nephew was capable of lifting it.
• Flash Arrow - Keitha’s home crafted arrows will put a hole through a tree at 100 paces, though her prodigious tendon strength certainly helps.
• Prismatic Missile - A fragment of concentrated elemental power loaned to Luminaire by spirits as thanks for her continued protection of the natural world.

You will have to explore the new DLC for Vampire Survivors to find the other weapons and unlock the new characters, which is half the fun!
