Indie developer Poncle has officially revealed that the upcoming Version 1.14 update for the popular roguelike shoot ’em up, Vampire Survivors, will include an online co-op feature. This highly anticipated addition allows up to four players to team up for cooperative gameplay. Fans are urged to stay tuned for further details in the upcoming weeks, as this patch is expected to be one of the most substantial to date.

In a recently released trailer, Poncle also hinted at additional features tied to the Version 1.14 update. Speculation among fans regarding what these features might be has been growing, especially following the success of past expansions, like the Among Us-themed one in 2023. However, the precise release date for the update has yet to be announced.

Furthermore, due to the ongoing popularity of Vampire Survivors, Poncle confirmed its intention to establish a publishing branch aimed at supporting smaller projects. The studio plans to provide development resources and other forms of assistance to developers, emphasizing its commitment to quality and innovation.

Despite being a fledgling indie title, Vampire Survivors is also in the pipeline for a film adaptation, initially conceived as an animated series but now heading towards a live-action feature, with Story Kitchen attached as the production team. The timeline for this project remains unconfirmed, as the developers look to ensure every detail is executed perfectly.
