In this Vampire Survivors character unlock guide, we’ll explain how to unlock every playable character in the game, including the secret ones.
UNLOCK YOUR VAMPIRE SURVIVORS CHARACTER
In addition to the four starting characters in Vampire Survivors, each regular character is associated with a Steam achievement and an unlock node in the unlock menu. Unlike their regular counterparts, secret characters don’t have associated achievements or nodes, so you’ll need a guide like this to see if you have them all.
Once you unlock a Vampire Survivors character, their silhouette will appear on your character selection screen the next time you start a run. However, you will need to buy a new character with gold if you really want to play it.
Below are all the requirements and abilities for each Vampire Survivor character as of patch 0.5.205.
