V Rising is receiving a big update in Patch 1.1, which goes by the name of Invaders of Oakveil. This Steam and PS5 game has enabled players to build castles, battle bosses, and travel across dark fantasy worlds.

The game keeps on expanding with fresh content and gameplay changes that the community has requested as part of this new update.

V Rising patch 1.1 

Patch 1.1 will release on April 28, 2025, and will introduce a brand-new region known as the Oakveil Woodlands. This forest environment is populated with hazardous foes and new bosses to vanquish. Players will also gain access to three new weapons Claws, Twinblade, and Throwing Daggers, as well as seven new spells and one strong ultimate ability. 

These changes are intended to enhance the game's combat, one of the most demanded areas for quality-of-life patches in V Rising.

Notably, one of the largest highlights is the fresh Duel system. This allows players to design bespoke PvP matches in special Castle Arenas. The update also adds weapon fuse and reforge mechanics, which enable players to consolidate and personalise equipment in fresh ways. The update is free, but a premium cosmetic pack, The Eternal Dominance Pack, will also be available for $19.99.

However, users will have to begin anew, as current game saves will not transfer to the new version. The game will cache both the old and new versions, which will make its file size larger.
