Azeroth Survivors vs Vampire Survivors

Last checked: 2026-10-28 · Sources and verification limits

People type “wow vampire survivors” when they want this browser game, and sometimes when they want the original. They are not versions of each other. One is a paid Steam game by poncle. The other is a free browser client by Aethus.

I used the Steam store record gathered on 28 October 2026 for Vampire Survivors: $4.99, released 20 October 2022, developer poncle, Windows and Mac, Metacritic 86. Azeroth Survivors returned total 0 on that same Steam search. I did not buy either game for this page.

Side by side

Both are survivor-likes: you move, attacks fire, you pick upgrades. That is why the searches collide. The rest does not match.

Store and author facts checked 2026-10-28. Metacritic 86 is the Steam record’s figure, not a score we gave.

Which one the search wanted

If the sentence includes Azeroth, WoW, Elwynn, or a class name, you want Aethus’s client. If it includes poncle or a Steam sale, you want Vampire Survivors. This guide does not host either game.

Questions

Is Azeroth Survivors a mod of Vampire Survivors?

No. It is a separate free browser game by Aethus. Vampire Survivors is poncle’s Steam game.

Sources and verification limits

Checked 2026-10-28. Two independent publishers are needed to call a claim confirmed. A menu, screenshot and script from Aethus count as one publisher. Exact menu HP, racial values and dated build identifiers are single-source observations. A video or a general game report does not independently verify every number. Missing values remain unreported; disagreements stay attributed.
