One of this year's biggest surprise hits, Vampire Survivors, is available now on iOS and Android. And best of all it's free with "no hidden costs or micro-transactions", bringing all of the rogue-lite meets bullet-hell auto-battle action to mobile devices the world over.

It's hard to argue with what feels like a very early Christmas present for all.

“People have been requesting a mobile port for Vampire Survivors since the day it launched, so I’m very happy the game has a new home on phones,” says poncle founder Luca Galante. “Now you can capital-S Survive from anywhere – on the morning commute, during an extended toilet break, under the desk during a meeting about productivity at work… anywhere. I’m personally not a fan of microtransactions, so we made the decision not to include them in the mobile port. This is the full game, for free, for real. Enjoy!”

Mow down thousands of night creatures and survive until dawn! Vampire Survivors is a gothic horror casual game with rogue-lite elements, where your choices can allow you to quickly snowball against the hundreds of monsters thrown at you.

As someone who has been playing A LOT of Vampire Survivors in recent times, it's also on Xbox Game Pass, this is awesome news. The game hits this casual meets deeply strategic sweet spot that's almost impossible to put down.
