Though, to collect each secret playable character, there are certain steps that you need to get through. Since they are secret characters, you don’t get any sort of explanation of how to unlock them. That’s where this article will come in handy, as it will explain it all to you step-by-step. Keep reading to learn how to unlock the secret character, Mask of the Red Death, in Vampire Survivors.
How to Unlock Mask of the Red Death
This first and most important step to unlocking Mask of the Red Death is to make it 30 minutes in Vampire Survivors. This may be a task by itself, given the game’s difficulty, especially when you are first starting out. However, it is doable. Once you reach the 30-minute mark, you will likely come face to face with Red Death, a very difficult grim reaper boss. The next step is to defeat Red Death. I’ll go a little more in-depth on how to do this below, as it isn’t easy by any means! Once you’ve killed Red Death, he will automatically be available as a playable Vampire Survivors character. Though, you will have to spend some coins to purchase him.

The best way to give you a step up in your fight against Red Death is to max out as many of your power-ups as you can! They will help a lot more than you may realize. Though, avoid the Greed and Curse power-ups, as they won’t help much in this specific fight at all. Revival or the Amount power-up are good ones to have as well!
Another key part in defeating Red Death in Vampire Survivors is to pick a good character to fight with. Krochi is probably the best character to take with you. Since they start out with an automatic +1 Revive, you will already have a much better chance at taking down Red Death.
The IV Awake Arcana is the most important Arcana to use while trying to defeat Red Death. It will give a big buff to your health, armor, might, projectile speed, area and duration. Not to mention, it gives you an additional 3 revives on top of the extra you already get for using Krochi.
As far as weapons go, the Infinite Corridor and Crimson Shroud are by far the best to take into this battle.
Once you’ve killed Red Death, you will have unlocked Mask of the Red Death as a secret playable character in Vampire Survivors. Your only other step is to gather up the 666 coins you will need to purchase this character from the shop. Check back for more Vampire Survivors guides!
