We also don&#8217;t know whether this will be a free upgrade, just in case you only have a Switch 1 right now and decide to upgrade later, or if you can transfer your save data between the two releases.<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;ve reached out to Poncle to confirm this, as there&#8217;s no official news out there. But it seems like, come 21st April, we&#8217;ll have a decision on whether to lose dozens of hours on Switch 1 or Switch 2.<\/p>\n<p>In case you missed this one, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/games\/nintendo-switch-2\/vampire-crawlers-the-turbo-wildcard-from-vampire-survivors\">Vampire Crawlers<\/a> is indeed a spin-off of Vampire Survivors and, instead of simply being a bullet heaven roguelike, Crawlers is a dungeon-crawling blobber complete with deckbuilding and (of course) roguelike elements.<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;re sure it&#8217;s as madcap as the original, and we can&#8217;t wait to find out what it&#8217;s like next week.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<p><em>Are you getting Vampire Crawlers next week?
