Greetings, Vampires!
Another Halloween season descends, and with it, the delightful dread of our limited-time seasonal DLC! Let your walls crawl with cobwebs by the firelight of your grinning jack-o-lanterns. Wallpaper, carpets, a standing mirror, and more return after a year-long absence that many of our Vampires have longed to possess… and now you can once more.
The Haunted Nights Castle Pack DLC is free to claim, and once you have it, you will have access to it forever. There’s only a limited time to claim it, though, so make sure you get your claws on it until November the 10th!

The Malevolent Monsters Art Competition
In this darkest and most cursed of months, we’re calling out to the twisted imaginations of all of you artists out there for our next art competition! This year, our theme is… monstrous!
Explore the world of Vardoran, tap into its most terrifying creatures, and exemplify the terror of its dangerous denizens! Show us your twist on Gorecrusher’s horned skull or Matka the Curse Weaver’s terrible rituals. Perhaps you have a vivid concept of how Wilfred the Werewolf Chief holds evening meals for his pack. Maybe you want to get even more creative still and imagine your own mutated curiosities from the pools of Gloomrot.
A mutated husk of terror.
Rules and Guidelines
Please read these bullet points carefully before entering the contest.
- Your submitted illustration should communicate the dark theme of V Rising, focused on the creatures and monsters of the world. This concept can be wholly original but must be very clearly tied to the world of V Rising and set in the world of Vardoran.
- The image dimensions can be a maximum of 2000×2000 pixels.
- You can illustrate everything by hand, use digital processes, photography and cosplay, photography and video, or 3D modeling. All mediums are welcome!
- Submitted art should be created by you, and only you. Please submit evidence of your process in the form of a layered original image file or a video time-lapse of your process to verify authenticity.
- Let’s agree that 15 MB is the max size of the final product provided. This size limit does not apply to the evidence of authenticity, but please try to be reasonable in your sizes for those as well.
- You can portray blood and violence, but let’s keep it classy! And hey! Avoid nudity and sexual violence.
- You can submit up to three entries, but we highly suggest that creating one fantastic entry is the way to go.
- Sharpen your fangs and pencils! You have until 11:59 PM GMT on Friday, November 10th, to send in your entry to contest@playvrising.com. Please include your full name (optional) and a social media or art station URL so we can credit you for your work. By submitting artwork to us, you will permit us to share it second-hand.

Monsters of V Rising for inspiration!
Once a man, now a slave to his nature.
Stiched together horrors from the pools of Gloomrot.
Toads twisted by the Cursed Forest.
Born from death, cursed to carry on.
A mysterious creature of the forest, older than the world.
The son of demented ambition, a true monster.
A hellish monstrosity, having emerged from a mass grave.
