How to unlock Genevieve Gruyère in Vampire Survivors (Tides of the Foscari)

Genevieve Gruyère is a playable character in the Vampire Survivors Tides of the Foscari DLC, though she isn't obtainable from the start: you need to meet a specific prerequisite first. Here's how to unlock Genevieve Gruyère in Vampire Survivors.

How to get Genevieve Gruyère in Vampire Survivors

To unlock Genevieve Gruyère in your Vampire Survivors character roster, you must break the Seal of the Banished with Eleanor Uziron in the Abyss Foscari stage. To do so, she must have SpellStrom, which is evolved from SpellString, SpellStream, and SpellStrike.

Once you've done so, Genevieve Gruyère will be automatically unlocked once you leave the stage.

To destroy the blue Seal of the Banished in Abyss Foscari, you need to have shattered the red Seal of the Abyss first. Once you have, load into the stage with Eleanor Uziron, level up her SpellString, SpellStream, and SpellStrike to their maximum level (level six), and then open up a Treasure Chest to unite them into SpellStrom.

With SpellStrom in hand, head over to the blue emerald and attack it repeatedly to break it. It will reveal the withered corpse of Je-Ne-Viv, who, once attacked, will fight you.

Where to find the Seal of the Banished in Vampire Survivors Tides of the Foscari

To find the Seal of the Banished once you've got SpellStrom, return to Abyss Foscari's starting point and head south toward the two Crown stage pickups. When you reach the first one, go west across the long stone bridge, and once on the other side, travel northwest toward the Attractorb and Stone Mask stage pickups.

The blue Seal of the Banished is sandwiched in between the two pickups; you can't miss it.
