Character unlocking guide for Vampire Survivors
Each standard character in Vampire Survivors has a Steam accomplishment and an unlock node in the unlock menu, aside from the four initial characters. Because secret characters, unlike their conventional counterparts, have no accompanying achievement or node, you’ll need a guide like this to figure out if you have them all.
When you unlock a Vampire Survivors character, their silhouette will appear on the character selection screen the next time you start a run. Nonetheless, if you want to play as the new character, you’ll need to spend gold to do so.
