What are Arcanas?
Arcanas represent a transformative modifier system within *Vampire Survivors*. The journey begins when you collect the Randomazzo, which activates the Arcana system and unlocks the first Arcana, Sarabande of Healing. Players can strategically select their preferred Arcana cards right from the stage selection screen before the match starts. Each Arcana offers unique functional benefits, but you must unlock them to harness their power.
