The V Rising offline mode is a newer feature that players can set up if they want to play V Rising without an internet connection. To do it, players have to set up a LAN server on their own computer independently, one that can be accessed without having to be online via the internet. We’ll go into more detail about how to set up an offline LAN server in V Rising below, so you can conduct your gothic reign of terror without having to do it via an ethernet cable.

More than that though, the fact that this world is effectively hosted on your own private network means that anybody on the same network can join your server, done by ticking the “LAN Server” checkbox in the “Direct Connect to Server window”. Admittedly, everybody would have to have their own PC to run V Rising, but it’s still an option available to people. For more info, check out the official patch reveal from the developers at the link provided, where they discuss the new features of the 0.5.41448 Patch.

Aside from the obvious advantage of offline mode meaning that you’re no longer shackled to an internet connection, players can also use admin and V Rising console commands and cheats to alter the worlds they host, a nice little benefit for those reigning as kings of their tiny gothic kingdoms. The Steam Cloud also records server history, so assuming they log onto the internet at some point to backup this information, players should theoretically be able to access those offline Lan Mode servers from other PCs. 

We should clarify that there’s some bugginess around this feature right now, but we’re paying close attention to the early V Rising Roadmap, to see if it’s corrected in the future!
