How to unlock weapons, items, secret characters and arcana in Vampire Survivors

 We tell you how to get new characters, weapons, items, arcana, and locations


In this ultimate Vampire Survivors guide, we'll show you how to unlock all the secret characters, new weapons, items, arcana and more. When you first start the game, you will only be able to select a few characters, while most of them will remain locked. The same applies to weapons, items, and lasso. However, with each new run, the number of available characters and things will only increase.


All of these items and heroes are vital. In particular, weapons and items are essential for evolution, which allows you to get new types of weapons and maximize the damage dealt by your weapons. As for new characters, the game blocks access to them by the level of equipment, the presence of certain items hidden in the game locations, or the destruction of a certain number of monsters. Later on, you will also learn about arcane mechanics, which provide unique weapon bonuses.
