Victor Vran Gets Multiplayer Patch

Victor Vran’s Early Access build has recently reached an important milestone for a title of its Diablo-like ilk of action-RPGs. The latest patch for the game developed by Haemimont Games has added a cooperative multiplayer mode, a staple feature for the genre, alongside a host of new content and improvements:

Features and content

• Cooperative Multiplayer mode – you can create and join Multiplayer games from the Online section in the main menu
• New game zone: The High Quarter
• New weapon: Scythe
• New Boss fight: Wa-Lee the Solicitor

Other changes

• Deflected attacks now deal 1/5 of their original damage, instead of no damage
• Fixed knockback on critical weapon property
• Changed position of Mausoleum of Bones and Forlorn catacombs
• The Alchemist destiny card is now unique. There are now 3 different rarities of the Alchemist with different costs and effect strength
• Levels 11 and 12 now reward Divine/Wicked cards on level up
• Needle, Justice legendary weapon tweaks
• Sunray demon power can be canceled
• Restored range of Blink demon power
• Changed visuals of Sanguine Aura and Berserk Aura demon powers
• Bleeding damage is now capped at maximum 100/second
• GebaN’s inventory refreshes
• Performance improvements on low-end machines

Early impressions for the title seemed to be fairly positive, so I’m interested to see how it’s shaping up after these substantial (and very much expected) additions, and whether that positive buzz will still be there at release.
