What are Arcanas?

Arcanas in *Vampire Survivors* are a unique modifier system that significantly alters gameplay. The system is activated by collecting the Randomazzo, which also unlocks the first Arcana, Sarabande of Healing. Players can choose their desired Arcana cards from the stage selection screen before starting a match. Each Arcana provides a unique function, but they must be unlocked first to be used.
