Vampire Survivors 1.16.111 Update and 1.17 Public Beta
Vampire Survivors 1.16.111 update and the 1.17 public beta
Use 1.16.111 for the current stable game. The PC public beta has advanced to 1.17.109. The stable patch focuses on fixes. The detailed beta preview was announced for 1.17.108, and the official Wiki update index records 1.17.109 one day later. Do not treat the stable and beta branches as the same live build.
This guide was checked against the official Steam announcement and the official Wiki update index on October 25, 2026. Poncle said that 1.16.111 was also rolling out to other platforms, but this page does not assume that every platform has already received the same build number.
Main fixes in stable version 1.16.111
Problem | Officially announced change |
|---|---|
Online sessions desynchronize | Online desync fixes |
Some achievements or secrets fail online | Multiple online achievement and secret fixes |

The table identifies problems listed in the patch notes. It does not establish exact post-patch values or guarantee that every similar symptom is gone.
If a problem remains after updating
- Check the version number shown by the game.
- On PC, confirm whether Steam is using the stable or public-beta branch.
- Record the platform, version, character, weapons, and stage.
- For online play, also record which platform and storefront each player uses.
- If the same setup reproduces the issue, report those details through the official bug-report channel.
See the platform and co-op FAQ for connection compatibility and the online disconnect FAQ for what happens when a host or client leaves.
What is different in the 1.17 public beta?
Version 1.17.108 was the PC public beta described in detail on October 16. The official Wiki update index records public-beta 1.17.109 on October 17. The announcement said that the next stable content update was still several weeks away, so its final release date and final contents were not confirmed.
The announced beta preview includes:
- Custom Characters
- one new stage
- one new relic
- one new character
- one new weapon and evolution
- one new Darkana
- a new passive weapon
- community challenge winner Baron Husker
These are the beta contents confirmed in the 1.17.108 announcement, not a complete 1.17.109 change list. They are also not a promise that the stable release will use the same names, feature set, or platform availability. In particular, do not infer console or mobile support for Custom Characters from the PC preview.
