Vampire Survivors Update Adds New Final Boss

By Rollin Bishop

The popular PC video game Vampire Survivors has released a new patch that adds a number of different updates and fixes to the Early Access video game. That includes, but is not limited to, a new version of the video game's final stage that includes a villainous boss to take on. Beyond that, there are new arcana, achievements, relics, and more.

More specifically, the roguelite Vampire Survivors Patch 0.8.0: The Winged One has added a new version of Stage 5, which is referred to as Cappella Magna, that includes the new boss. Once players complete the new version of Stage 5, however, it reverts to a simpler version on the following playthroughs.
