As part of the Triple-i Showcase stream, Poncle has announced that their mega-hit move-’em-up Vampire Survivors will be crossing over with Konami’s classic run-and-gun Contra. Vampire Survivors: Operation Guns is releasing all current platforms on May 9th, with the PlayStation version arriving this Summer.
“The Presidentās cousinās sisterās dog has been kidnapped by Red Falcon. Are you bad enough to come to the rescue?” asks the presser. Yes, sir, I am pretty bad. Sufficiently bad, I must claim.
Vampire Survivors: Operation Guns will supposedly encourage “min-maxing and stat manipulation” and will add a tonne of weapons, which is more specifically 20 including evolutions. Brad Fang from Contra: Hard Corps will be there. That’s pretty cool. It doesn’t mention any new levels, but having the game become more Contra-flavored should be enough. It’s always nice to see Konami getting mixed in with a few stews after it spent decades burning all its goodwill.
Wait a minute, how is Vampire Survivors crossing over with Contra before Castlevania? Oh, that Poncle. Always zigging when you think they should be zagging.
Vampire Survivors: Operation Guns infiltrates the main game via a patch on May 9th on all current platformers. PlayStation version will be arriving this Summer.
