Figures that were on the store pages

Warhammer Survivors: released 10 November 2026, list price $7.99, launch discount $7.19 on the US-facing notes, platforms spanning Windows, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Switch, Switch 2, iOS, and Android. Steam showed 69 percent from 1,736 reviews, labeled Mixed, on 13 November 2026. The earlier research snapshot recorded Metacritic at 79 from 12 critics; a direct recheck returned an access restriction, so that figure remains an attributed earlier snapshot.

Vampire Survivors: released 20 October 2022, $4.99, Windows and macOS on the Steam record checked the same day. That page showed 252,899 reviews. Metacritic for that game showed 86. I am not filling in a character count or a weapon count for Vampire Survivors, because those numbers were not re-checked here.

Warhammer Survivors adds two universes, Extremis bosses, followers, a Game Pass launch, and phone builds. Warhammer Survivors is single-player at launch. Vampire Survivors' current Steam record separately lists multiplayer, co-op, and online co-op; the games differ on this point. Whether the extra setting is worth the higher list price is a buying choice; the pages that feed it are the price page and the reviews page.
