Where to start

When it comes to enjoying different stage maps in Vampire Survivors, the choices are more than enough.

The base game itself offers plenty of different stages to begin with, even though some of them are hidden at first. With the introduction of post-launch DLCs, new maps and stages have been added to the core lot. That said, you’ll still want to have the full information about how to access all of them. While the normal maps can be unlocked quite easily, the hidden stage maps can be tricky to find in the first place.

All normal stage maps in Vampire Survivors

The normal stage maps are available to everyone by default, and they will provide you with a first taste of the gameplay and what to expect in more advanced stages.
