What are Arcanas?

Arcana are modifiers in Vampire Survivors. Unlocking Randomazzo activates the Arcana system and the first Arcana, Sarabande of Healing. Players choose their Arcana cards on the stage selection screen before the match starts. Each Arcana offers unique functionality, but must be unlocked first.

Here are a few examples:

• Boogaloo of Illusions: Over 10 seconds, the character's area expands from -25% to +25%, gaining +1% area per level. Unlock Condition: Reach level 50 with Concetta.

• Heart of Fire: Weapon projectiles detonate on impact, creating light explosions. Character damage also triggers explosions. Unlock Condition: Reach level 50 with Arca.

• Silent Old Sanctuary: Grants +3 Rerolls, Skips, and Banishes. Provides +20% Might and -8% Cooldown for each empty weapon slot. Unlock Condition: Reach minute 31 in the Dairy Plant.

• Blood Astronomia: Weapons add damage zones affected by Amount and Magnet. Enemies within Magnet range take damage based on Amount. Unlock Condition: Reach level 50 with Poe.
