Where to Find Night Sword and Evolve it into Muramasa in Vampire Survivors Legacy of the Moonspell – Evolution Explained

Time to go full anime.

Vampire Survivors’ first-ever DLC is finally out. A lot of new content has been promised, and by all means, Poncle DELIVERED right on target. One of the new weapons in Vampire Survivors is the red sword that you can see on the minimap when you boot up the DLC map. Prima Games is here to tell you where to find the Night Sword and how to evolve it into Muramasa easily. The Evolution of Night Sword can be done directly on the Mt. Moonspell and I’ll show you how.

The new map is absolutely bonkers in terms of size, and it’s not the same tile repeated all over again. It is a reasonably large-sized open world. In the gallery below, you will see how and where to find the new weapon in Legacy of the Moonspell.

Assuming you won’t use Arcana Mad Groove to pull everything to yourself at the start, you will need to do the following:

  • When you spawn in, head out north immediately and you will wind up at the crossing after a Torii gate (Picture 1). Go right.
  • In Picture 2, you will see a map that shows that the sword is very close. You can either go up into the cave or continue right and walk up the mountain. Either works.
  • In Picture 3, you see a skeleton emerging from the ground and the Night Sword next to it. You do not need to defeat this skeleton boss to grab the Night Sword, but by all means please do, because he is pretty weak and yields a Treasure Chest.
  • In Picture 4, you see the pick-up menu. It reads: “Dangerous, cursed weapon, retaliates. Might steal hearts.”

Before we proceed onto the evolution of this insane sword that can life steal from you as a player, retaliate, crit, and do all sorts of damage, we feel obligated to bore you with some nerd stuff about the sword. It has an interaction with Arcana XVI, and the levels of the Night Sword act like this:

  • Level 2: Fires 1 more projectile.
  • Level 3: Base Damage up by 5. Base Area up by 20%.
  • Level 4: Fires 1 more projectile.
  • Level 5: Base Damage up by 10. Base Area up by 20%.
  • Level 6: Fires 1 more projectile.
  • Level 7: Base Damage up by 10. Base Area up by 20%.
  • Level 8: Base Damage up by 10.

When you max out the Night Sword, obtain a Stone Mask. And that should be it. You just need to loot a Treasure Chest and proc the evolution! Two Achievements will be unlocked.
