Award-winning survival RPG Vampire Survivors has recently released update 1.6.108, which has brought a myriad of bug fixes and general improvements to the game. The update launched on the iOS, Android, and Nintendo Switch versions of the game. 

Developed by Poncle, Vampire Survivors is a “roguelite time survival RPG” that showcases the supernatural-themed games of the indie scene. The game is set in a world where devils from hell have invaded  the world and you must put a stop to them. The main character automatically attacks enemies so you only have to control their movement. Your objective is to survive as many waves of enemies as you can before dying. During your survival, you can collect gold in each run and use that to buy upgrades. The game gives you plenty of weapons to use and you can come up with various weapon combination to suit your playstyle. You can fight the demonic hordes either solo or with up to three other players in co-op mode.

Update 1.6.108 is one of the many sub-updates after the game’s major 1.6 update, which introduced a new engine and local co-op to the game. In update 1.6.108, Poncle delivers Chinese (Traditional) as a new language to the game as well as a myriad of fixes on gameplay, graphics, audio, and more. Update 1.6.108 does not deliver much in terms of new features but the commitment of the studio to fix the game’s problems is always a welcome endeavor.

This new 1.6.108 update has been launched on the iOS, Android, and Nintendo Switch versions of the game. But interestingly, the PC version (Steam) has already received the 1.6.109 update as of September 14. This advanced update provides additional features like an “Enter co-op” button, the ability for early access PC players to recover their save files, and multiple hotfixes.
