Good evening Kindred, today we shared some very exciting news on our Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2 news stream! We were joined by Sean Greaney (EVP of Darkness) and Ian Thomas (Narrative Director at TCR), who discussed some of the game's features relating to both narrative and roleplaying. In case you missed it, you can find it below. In the stream, we were introduced to the protagonist of Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2; Phyre, an Elder vampire at odds with the voice in her head, who confronts Seattle's powerful elites at war over the City's fate.

Players choose Phyre's clan and gender and begin exploring a re-imagined Seattle filled with compelling characters while maneuvering through complex relationships. Choices and conversations (even outfits!) shape how the environment and characters react to Phyre, changing how the story unfolds.




We are happy to share that over the coming weeks we will reveal the four clans playable at launch. The first will be revealed next week. In addition to these four clans, an additional clan will be made available via DLC. A sixth clan will appear in a unique, standalone DLC. Details on the DLCs will be shared during 2024. Some of the clans will be familiar to Bloodlines players, but some will surprise! Watch the RPG & Narrative Stream:


If you still want more, we can recommend checking out our live-play chronicle Seattle By Night season 2, as Jason Carl leads our Coterie on a journey through Seattle, encountering challenges linked to the events that will unfold in Bloodlines 2.

Talking DLCs before the proper game release seems rich given the delay and apparent problems.

This title is so very, very late that it's a wonder that it hasn't become a meme. It was announced and pre-orders went on sale in the FIRST QUARTER OF 2019!!!!!

Needs to step it up if it wants to beat Star Citizen.

I had it at #2 wishlist for years and removed it back in 2021.

When the big announcement went out over Steam on the new studio, I just commented "Good luck. You'll need it."

Went from "Maybe Day 1 purchase" to "Wait 4 sprints after their twitter apology for 'bad performance and regretfully missing customer expectations' before reading the patch notes."

Sad times to be a PC gamer.

Dont set yourself up for failure by buying on day 1, wait for the first or second major patch, or better yet wait for a sale. The talk of a DLC means missing content that couldnt be added for release deadline.

This is still in development? I thought it was effectively cancelled?


Well, if it ever comes out I'm likely to give it a try.
