The Chinese Room and Paradox Interactive have revealed plenty of new details on Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2 in the weeks since its re-reveal, talking about its design philosophies, narrative themes, neo-noir art style, the protagonist, and much more, and lately, has started sharing new details on the playable clans that will be available in the game. Last week, we got our first look at the Brujah clan, and now, the developers have offered a glimpse of the Tremere vampires.
Alongside a brief teaser that provides a glimpse of gameplay when playing as a member of the Tremere clan, The Chinese Room has also published a blog post that offers more insight into what players can expect. If you play as a Tremere vampire, not only will you be able to use your own blood as a weapon (like shaping it into throwing projectiles), you’ll also be able to control the blood of your enemies, from ripping it our of their bodies to boiling in their veins. As the game kicks off, the Tremere clan will be reeling from a recent attack on its main chantry, but through the clan is “injured”, it’s “far from fallen”.
The Tremere clan will be one of four that will be available in the game upon its release, with plans in place for two more that will be added post-launch, one of which will also come with “a completely unique Seattle story.”
Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2 is set to launch in Fall 2024 for PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC, and Paradox Interactive is pretty sure that it won’t be delayed this time.
