More about V Rising
Of the 799 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 8 come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written March 2026 to October 2026. That is fewer refunded reviewers than 7 in 10 paid games this site has sampled to the same depth, and among the 2,368 games in its genre sampled this deeply, 1,920 have a larger share. Inside the two-hour refund window, 55 percent of the 3,814 reviews written there were positive, against 89 percent overall, and those are 3 percent of everything written about it.
138,081 reviews stand behind that percentage.
Valve rates it Steam Deck Verified, so it runs on the handheld without fiddling.

What players say
Multiplayer is dead, solo play is unbalanced, no resurrect items for solo play, bosses arent balanced game is just a slog before you even finish first act, only way to get new items is random paper grinding which is AFTER act 1 areas and the bosses that do give new items for crafting are unbalanced or straight buggy. Not worth money or time since they abandoned the bug fixing.

fun survival crafter where boss fights punch you in the nuts. progression consists of 60+ nut punches! honestly this game would be perfect if you had more mobility options when fighting bosses. imagine dark souls with 1 roll every 10 seconds. yeah have fun.
I started this expecting a basic vampire survival game. In truth, it is a vampire real estate simulator with over 60 unique bosses. You spend your time dodging the sun, hunting specific blood types, and farming materials to expand your base. The castle design system is excellent. It gives you full control to build a massive gothic mansion. The different vampire abilities you unlock from bosses will feel lore...
