What are Arcanas?
Arcanas in *Vampire Survivors* are a unique modifier system. To activate the Arcana system and unlock the first Arcana, Sarabande of Healing, you need to collect the Randomazzo. Players can then choose their preferred Arcana cards at the stage selection screen before the match begins. Each Arcana offers a distinct function, but you must unlock them first to utilize their benefits.
