V Rising PvP explained: How to play V Rising PvP
Here’s exactly how each PvP mode works in V Rising.
V Rising is the vampire survival game that just left Early Access on Steam, and Stunlock Studios has certainly done something right, as plenty of budding vampires have flocked to the game once again.
As a vampire, players must drain the blood of enemies, avoid the sun, and craft endlessly in order to build a strong empire. As you start your game of V Rising, there are a few options on offer: PvE, PvP, and Duos PvP.
Choosing what type of server you want to be on can be difficult. Fortunately, we explain each PvP game mode, and the differences between PvE, PvP, and Duos PvP.
V Rising PvP explained
PvE in V Rising is the standard game mode in which players do not battle it out with each other. When it comes to PvP, though, you’ve a couple of modes on offer to choose from.
The standard PvP mode in V Rising is identical to PvE, except you’re now allowed to engage in vampire-on-vampire combat with other players. You’ll also be able to raid player’s castles and loot some of their resources. This type of PvP is recommended for 3-4 players.
PvP or Duos PvP in V Rising?
If you haven’t got a clan to team up with, or simply prefer to play alone or in a smaller group, Duos PvP is the way to go. This mode is also great if you don’t fancy coming up against four strong vampires as a solo player.
During Duos PvP in V Rising, you’ll be able to engage in PvP solo, or as part of a clan with one other player. Grab a close friend and go live your best vampire life!
How to start a PvP game in V Rising
To start a PvP game in V Rising, boot up the game and select 'Play' from the main menu. Then, opt for 'Online play.'
Here, you can choose between PvE, PvP, and PvP Duos servers. Select the PvP option you want, and you'll then be shown a list of servers to choose from.
Select a server that meets the difficulty and clan sizes you want to play with, and opt to join. Now, you and your clan can create a character and get started!
Can you turn off PvP in V Rising?
The simple answer is that there is no option to turn off PvP in V Rising. Once you have chosen a server to play on, that’s that.
If you’re looking to avoid combat with other players and wish to keep your hard-earned resources safe, choose to play on PvE servers at the beginning of your game, or start a private game altogether.
That’s all there is to know about PvP in V Rising, and good luck out there if that’s the mode you choose to play. PvP raids can be pretty ruthless if you come up against strong clans, so be sure to collect plenty of cotton and iron, and get your gear upgraded.
