There are numerous characters, weapons, accessories, and stages in Vampire Survivors, but players will not have access to a majority of this content upon starting their time with this roguelite. Instead, fans will need to put some effort toward unlocking it, though exactly how that is done may not be immediately obvious. For those players that need some clarification on this matter, details on all the Vampire Survivors' unlocks, and their respective requirements, can be found in this guide.
To note, the information within this guide is current to Vampire Survivors version 0.2.9, and future updates of this cheap Steam game may make some details outdated. That said, it is reasonable to expect that the core of these unlockables will remain consistent for the entirety of the game's lifespan.

Characters in Vampire Survivors are purchased with Gold from the character select screen after the prerequisites are fulfilled. The amount of Gold that is needed to unlock characters varies as players progress through the game, and specific values have thus not been listed below.
Notably, Vampire Survivors' weapon evolutions and unions are not included in this list of unlocks. The reasoning for this is that evolving a weapon once does not put its evolution into the pool of items that players will select from when leveling up. Indeed, bullet hell fans must evolve weapons every run if they want to have access to their powerful effects.
One quick note about stages is that the hyper versions increase the speed of the player character and the enemies. Some indie game fans believe that these modifications actually decrease the difficulty of Vampire Survivors.
Vampire Survivors is in early access on PC.
