A new V Rising crafting station will also be added with the 2025 update, allowing players to take stat bonuses from items in order to make endgame gear. Players can also look forward to a new region located in the north of Silverlight that will extend the map’s reach. This new zone will bring fresh content to players, offering harder challenges and bosses. While Stunlock Studios celebrates its impressive achievement, V Rising is gearing up to tackle 2025 with plenty of exciting new things for players to experience.
