The Gaze of Gaea is a newly introduced weapon in Vampire Survivors with patch 1.13. This green stag’s head weapon can neutralize enemies by rendering them harmless and can evolve into the Embrace of Gaea, a more potent defensive tool. However, obtaining and evolving the Gaze of Gaea might pose a challenge.
In this Vampire Survivors guide, we will detail the steps to unlock the Gaze of Gaea for future runs and transform it into the Embrace of Gaea.
How to unlock the Gaze of Gaea in Vampire Survivors

To unlock the Gaze of Gaea, you must first unlock The Coop, a map filled with chickens similar to a library. This is achieved by consuming 500 Floor Chickens throughout your time playing Vampire Survivors.
If you’ve been playing for a while, you’re likely close to this goal. Simply load a map, consume a chicken, and exit, prompting the unlock of The Coop. New players should proceed through the game until they naturally collect 500 Floor Chickens.
With The Coop unlocked, enter the map and avoid killing any chickens for about a minute. This may be tricky as weapons auto-fire. The best approach is to choose a character without lethal starting weapons and skip any level ups.
Several characters suit this strategy, but Gallo, with the Clock Lancet, is recommended. Enter the map and avoid chickens until the screen zooms in and a green stag-like creature resembling Gaze of Gaea ends your run, unlocking the weapon for future use.
How to evolve the Gaze of Gaea in Vampire Survivors

To evolve the Gaze of Gaea, acquire it during a run, level it up to eight, and combine it with the Parm Aegis passive item, which extends post-hit invulnerability.
To evolve Gaze of Gaea, start on The Coop with a character that has an effective area-clearing weapon like the Whip. As the timer progresses and enemies attack, clear fences on the right to discover the Parm Aegis and collect it.
