Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2

The game is set to be more of an action-RPG.

Now the time frame is "first half of 2025".

The Chinese Room has definitely not polished the game yet, but it still very open about how the game is progressing.

Creative director Alex Skidmore wants the combat to be "visceral" and "immersive."

You'll be able to customise your appearance, but your role in the story will be the same.

The creators of Dear Esther, Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs and Everybody's Gone to the Rapture will take the project across the finish line.

But pre-orders are being cancelled and refunded in the meantime.

And Paradox has decided to change developers.

Shortly after being let go, Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2's narrative lead has expressed his disappointment.

There's been a fairly major leadership change behind the scenes at Hardsuit Labs.

You're going to have to find another way to quench your thirst for blood in 2020.

Want to display a miniature version of swoon-worthy vampire dame Elif in your home? If so, the Bloodlines 2 collector's edition might be worth checking out.

Damsel, the bitter badass with the perhaps not-so-true-to-character name from Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines is being brought back for the sequel.

The new trailer for Hardsuit Labs' Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2 shows off some vampire dance moves.

The anticipated vampire-themed RPG has hit an important developmental milestone and now it's a case of polishing up what's there.
