The difference in Bloodhunt comes from your being a vampire. And the playing area in Prague gradually shrinks as a red mist rolls in. You start with no weaponry, so you need to loot it, as well as collect armour and blood packs (health refills), pulling them from the back of police vans, or chests and containers, and sometimes shops, that you find around the city. Exactly how many players can fight together isn't finalised yet. The game goes like this (and 'this' will be quickly familiar to anyone who's played a battle royale game, which at this point is probably everyone?): you queue solo, or in teams of three, for a big fight in the locked-down city of Prague at night.

Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodhunt preview Something entirely in keeping with what you expect from a Vampire: The Masquerade game.
And they've made something dark, handsome and atmospheric. It has a studio of around 200 people behind it: a newish Swedish studio called Sharkmob, led by Ubisoft Massive (The Division) veterans. It's a pretty impressive production, actually. I know that sounds strange but I've played it, and it's better than I expected. Except, it's not an RPG like Bloodlines 2, it's a free-to-play battle royale. Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodhunt hits Early Access on PC, via Steam, September 7.So there is a big Vampire: The Masquerade video game coming out this year after all. But hopefully Bloodhunt will help satiate the thirst as the wait continues. Vampire: The Masquerade fans have had quite a rough run this year, with Bloodlines 2 still mired in development hell. The developer insists that Bloodhunt will be a “player-focused” title first and foremost, keeping a fair and even playing field in as many ways as possible. Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodhunt will be a free-to-play title with Sharkmob insisting that the game will not feature any “pay-to-win” purchases or microtransactions. And if that fails, there’s always good, old-fashioned lead. Stealth abilities, teleportation, and gravity-breaking acrobatics will enable your clan to get a neck-up over the opposition. Players will be kitted out with a selection of unique skills and abilities, with a variety of powerful weaponry also available on-site. Bloodhunt will see the characters, style, and lore of the popular role-playing board game adapted for the popular - if somewhat repetitive - battle royale genre. Once again, betrayal and treachery stalk The Masquerade, and the vampire clans of Prague have taken to the streets and rooftops in order to uncover and eliminate the agents of a dangerous anti-vampire sect known as The Entity. Toreador Clan joins the battle for the nightĪs announced by developer Sharkmob during last night’s Gamescom Opening Night Live presentation, Bloodhunt, the battle royale title set within the Vampire: The Masquerade universe, will enter Early Access on PC September 7, offering would-be bloodsuckers the opportunity to jump into the dark and gritty underworld of The Masquerade.
