To help you get into the spirit of the season, Stunlock Studios’ survival game V Rising is going free to play this Halloween.
From October 28 until November 1, V Rising will be free to play – a free weekend that comes a day after the game becomes playable on GeForce Now.
To further help you get into the Halloween spirit, Stunlock Studios has also released a Halloween-themed downloadable content (DLC) for V Rising, which is available right now. The Haunted Nights Castle Pack adds a host of spooky decorations for your vampiric castles, including some suitably creepy lights as well as some new wallpapers, stained glass windows and other items.
The update also adds a new preset for PvE and PvP servers called Mad Hunt, which randomises the locations of all V Blood units, V Blood Abilities and V Blood Technologies.
Stunlock Studios has put certain limits in place in order to ensure that progression is still possible (and not frustrating), but is otherwise describing it as a whole new way to play the game.
The update has also made a number of balance adjustments to spells and weapons, as well as some fixes and changes to “support a healthier endgame castle-raiding environment.” This includes reducing standard raid time from a six hour window to a four hour window, which should hopefully make it easier for players to defend their territory.
