Vampire Survivors has just released a thrilling free DLC, the Emerald Diorama, which introduces an exciting crossover with Square Enix's renowned fantasy RPG series, SaGa. This marks the largest update for the game to date, bringing a fresh wave of JRPG elements into the mix.
The Emerald Diorama DLC introduces a captivating new stage designed as a mini world map, offering players the thrill of world-hopping. Alongside this, you'll encounter over a dozen new characters, ranging from puppeteers to singers who unleash cursed melodies, adding depth and diversity to your gameplay experience.
This update enriches your arsenal with more than 16 new weapons and introduces the innovative Glimmer system. This system allows you to randomly acquire new skills during your runs, enhancing strategic gameplay. Additionally, the DLC features nine new music tracks, further immersing you in the SaGa-inspired atmosphere.
To unlock the Emerald Diorama, navigate to Moongolow in the game and interact with a new merchant. Purchase the Emerald Disk for 50,000 gold, and you'll be able to unlock the content piece by piece. The DLC also introduces character parties, enabling you to form and control your own mini squad, enhancing teamwork and strategy.

Furthermore, the DLC includes two new Adventures, each consisting of six chapters. "To End an Ice Age" is tailored for the base game, while "Tides of the Foscari" expands the narrative and gameplay of the new DLC.
In addition to the Emerald Diorama, Vampire Survivors has rolled out another free update called The Coop, which is centered around chickens. This update introduces Gazebo, a new chicken character, along with a new weapon and a relic that allows you to speed up the game.
Players can achieve various achievements and unlock Darkana. By collecting 500 lifetime floor chickens, you'll unlock the full potential of The Coop update. A useful tip for playing The Coop is to avoid killing anything for the first minute, which will unlock the Gaze of Gaea. Evolving it further with Parm Aegis will unlock Gazebo, adding more excitement to your gameplay.
Vampire Survivors, along with the free DLC Emerald Diorama and the free update The Coop, is available for download on the Google Play Store. This update also introduces cross-platform saving, allowing you to save your progress across PC, Xbox, Android, and iOS devices.
