The game “Vampire Survivors,” created by Luca Galante and his team at Poncle, was their debut project. Launched in 2022, it became an unexpected hit in the indie gaming world, making its way onto almost every contemporary platform. Now, it appears that the developers are working on a new project, and we won’t have to wait long to learn more about it. On June 8th, Poncle will be at the PC Gaming Showcase, but they’ve hinted that they won’t be showcasing anything related to “Vampire Survivors.” Instead, in a post on Bluesky, the studio stated, “We’ll be unveiling something new.

As a gaming enthusiast, I must admit, the developers haven’t shared much about their upcoming project yet. Considering the event’s context, it’s likely that this game might debut as an exclusive for PC users initially, and eventually expand to other platforms later on. The team has unveiled a teaser image for the event, which appears to be from this new game at first glance. However, right now, it’s too blurry to decipher anything concrete. So, fellow fans of the development team, we’ll just have to keep our fingers crossed and wait till next month to unravel whatever mystery Poncle has in store for us. Fortunately, that date isn’t too far off!

Currently, it’s uncertain how this fresh project may influence the future of Vampire Survivors, given its consistent flow of content over the past three years. This content includes not only original material but also collaborations with well-known gaming series like Among Us, Castlevania, and Contra. The most recent collaboration, featuring Square Enix’s SaGa franchise, was launched just last month, marking the largest amount of free content released so far.

Is it plausible that Poncle might conclude the storyline for Vampire Survivors with a grand finale, but there’s no definitive evidence suggesting this? It’s possible, but as of now, there are no signs pointing towards such an outcome. However, what we do know is that Poncle is currently working on expanding the Vampire Survivors universe, originally conceived as an animated series, which has now morphed into a live-action film project. Given the ambition to grow Vampire Survivors into a franchise, it’s challenging to envision the developers abandoning the game altogether. Here’s hoping they can effectively manage their time between the existing game and their new venture.

Ever since the explosive success of Vampire Survivors upon its release, I can’t help but wonder what Poncle has in store for their next venture. Initially, there was no real anticipation when the game debuted; it seemed to emerge unexpectedly and rapidly gained a following. Now, three years later, Poncle is a more recognized name with a dedicated fanbase that’s eagerly awaiting their next move. Here’s hoping that this upcoming project will resonate not just with Vampire Survivors fans, but also attract newcomers who haven’t yet experienced the thrill of their roguelike game.
