Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2

Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2 is an upcoming role-playing video game and direct sequel to 2004's Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines. Published by Paradox Interactive, it is being developed by The Chinese Room using Unreal Engine 5. The game will be played solely from the first-person perspective.

Overview

The game was announced in 2019[1] when Paradox Interactive released the trailer on their official YouTube channel. Originally planned for release in the first quarter of 2020, the game's development has been delayed several times[2][3][4] in efforts to inasmuch prevent the same technical and commercial fate that befell the first Bloodlines. In September 2023, a new release date of Fall 2024 was set with the announcement of its new developer, The Chinese Room.[5] Some content from the first version of Bloodlines 2 is being reused, but much of the game and its central plot have been reconstructed nearly from scratch.[6]

Plot

"Enter the World of Darkness and rise through vampire society. Experience Seattle - a city full of alluring, dangerous characters and factions. In this sequel to the cult classic, your choices, plots and schemes will change the balance of power."
