The Chaos Update is coming to Vampire Survivors soon. Developer Poncle has announced the version 1.3.0 patch will release this Thursday, February 9, for the game, introducing a new challenge stage, two relics, and three achievements.

The challenge stage is called Bat Country, so be prepared to eradicate thousands of the winged creatures. Meanwhile, one of the two new relics is Chaos Malachite, which will morph the skeleton character Mortaccio upon reaching level 80. Check out the update trailer below.

There definitely seems to be quite a few Sonic the Hedgehog references with this free patch for Vampire Survivors. For starters, it's named the Chaos Update. But even the new challenge stage appears similar to the 3D special stages from Sonic the Hedgehog 3.

Late last year, Vampire Survivors received its first paid DLC: Legacy of the Moonspell. The add-on brought a new stage, 13 weapons, and eight characters to the game. Another patch arrived just before the DLC too, containing quality-of-life improvements.

Vampire Survivors just recently launched on iOS and Android for free back in December. Before that, the roguelike title became an unlikely smash hit on PC before arriving on Xbox Game Pass. It was also one of GameSpot's top 10 games of 2022.
