Daytime

Daytime plays a very important role and is a core concept of the game world in V Rising.

Time and therefore Daytime is constantly moving forwards, which creates Day and Night cycles and therefore alternating playstyles during these times.

During night time, players can move on the map freely. During day time on the other hand, players have to be careful about where they go, as being in direct sunlight for too long creates Sun Exposure, which after a short period of time, starts to inflict a percentage of max health damage to the player multiple times a second and therefore kills them very fast, if they don't find cover quickly.

Day and Night cycle
The cycle of day and night is visible to all players through a clock next to the mini-map and shows roughly when day and night hours start. By default (medium length and medium day / night balance) nights last for 11 minutes, 15 seconds and days last for 6 minutes, 45 seconds. The extra-polated values for short, long and very long day lengths with medium day / night balance, can be extraced from the following table (unverified ).
