Vampire Survivors truly has a lot of weapons, upgrades, evolutions, unions, and gifts, and it’s understandable if a player gets lost trying to learn about all the combinations. Below is a list of how to evolve every eligible Vampire Survivors weapon.
How to Unlock All Weapon Evolutions in Vampire Survivors
The primary gameplay loop in Vampire Survivors is killing enemies, collecting gems (XP), and choosing perks when you level up. The game doesn’t directly tell you this. Still, you can unlock hidden upgrades or evolutions with certain combinations of items in your kit. This requires a specific pair of a weapon and a passive item, leveling the weapon up to its maximum level and then grabbing a treasure chest. Also, the chest has to have spawned after the ten-minute mark in your run.
Here are the “recipes” that will help you become the ultimate Vampire Survivor in the world.
