Death Parade, a free content update for poncle’s deckbuilding spin-off Vampire Crawlers: The Turbo Wildcard from Vampire Survivors, is “out now on all platforms,” poncle announced on October 12, 2026. The same post says the game is now available on iOS and Android.
The Details
What Death Parade adds, per poncle:
- 1 new stage and 3 dungeons
- 2 new Crawlers
- 2 new weapons, plus 1 evolution and 1 utility card
- 4 gems, 4 Arcanas and 2 relics
There are no new Steam achievements in this update, so completionists have nothing new to chase there. The post also brings less welcome news: poncle “had to push the other two content patches to early next year,” so the rest of 2026 will bring quality of life patches only, and the next new content will not arrive until 2027.
Vampire Crawlers is a deckbuilding dungeon crawler set in the Vampire Survivors universe, made by poncle with Nosebleed Interactive. With the mobile release, it is now on Steam, Nintendo Switch, Xbox, PlayStation, iOS and Android. It costs $9.99 on Steam, and Death Parade is free for everyone who owns it.
What This Means for Players
If you have been playing since launch, Death Parade is a free batch of new content worth returning for, with two new Crawlers to try. If you have only played Vampire Survivors, the mobile release makes the spin-off easy to try on the same phone you play the original on, since it keeps the series’ short-run structure but turns combat into card play.
If deckbuilders are your thing, our Slay the Spire 2 hub has builds for every character, starting with the Ironclad build, and our best Switch 2 games of 2026 covers more to play on the go.
