After the major V Rising 1.1 update, which took place just a few days ago, the developers released a new hotfix aimed at addressing a number of minor bugs and glitches reported by players, including: gameplay improvements, visual effects, and performance enhancements.

Update 1.1 for V Rising introduced new spells, difficulty levels, and other game mechanics. Players welcomed the changes with enthusiasm, but there were some technical issues. Players encountered malfunctioning vampire steeds, graphical errors, and gamepad interface glitches.

Among the most important fixes is a bug that prevented the use of vampire steeds. To apply the changes, players needed to re-summon their horses. Another critical fix addresses a situation where prisoners summoned through the Dusk Caller could get stuck, forcing players to remain in a "subdued subject" state. To exit this state, the Release Target ability must be used, which unfortunately results in the prisoner's death.

Other improvements include corrected track names for the Gloomrot music box, enhanced armor animation, and the removal of a visual bug with the Wisteria Wall Growths. The hotfix also addresses tooltip errors, gamepad interface issues related to blood infusions, and incorrect blood quality display in the mixer.

In response to building issues, the update limits the placement of stairs on gravel paths, which previously led to them being undeletable. A rare but annoying issue was also resolved, where players could die from sunlight inside their castles after disconnecting from the server.

Stunlock Studios confirmed that the update also includes several internal optimizations aimed at improving the overall performance and stability of the game.
