Thrown into a dark, unforgiving world.

• Combat

  Take on your foes through first perspective combat. Wield a range of melee weapons and firearms, but in the end: You are the ultimate weapon!

REACTIVE STORYTELLING
Choices Matter.

Written by Brian Mitsoda, the creative mind behind the original Bloodlines, Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2 reacts to your every choice in a narrative where different paths, and outcomes, abound. Your human background, the Thinblood discipline you choose, the fullblood clan you join, the faction you align with and how you maintain your humanity as a vampire all affect your playthrough.

BLOOD IN THE STREETS
Control the blood.

As one of the few free agents in town, you will choose a side and play an important role in the factional war to control the blood trade. But can your allies answer why you were made, who’s pulling the strings, and who your real enemies are? Or will you be more concerned with what you can do to get ahead among the vampire elite? The choice is yours.

THE MASQUERADE
Some rules are unbreakable.

You don’t break The Masquerade. To ensure survival, Kindred must keep their existence secret to humans – and The Prince of Seattle is sure to deal with any breach.

DISCIPLINES
Unlock your full Kindred potential.

Choose one of three starting Thinblood disciplines and discover your full power when you choose your fullblood clan and get two additional disciplines. Read about the playable clans to learn more about their powers.

• Heightened Senses

  Enhance your vision and hearing to reveal hidden objects and discover the secrets of the Seattle night.

FEEDING
In the end, it all comes back to blood.

As a vampire, you don’t feed to survive; you live to feed. Whether you prefer your blood roiling with Pain, hot with Rage, thick with Delirium; whether you prefer your victims to be in Fear or your partner to be in the throes of Desire: The Resonances of your victims shapes what kind of vampire you become. Be without it for too long and you will inevitably descend into Frenzy to get hold of it.

SEATTLE
A City Run on Blood

From its founding, Seattle has been run by vampires. In Bloodlines 2, you will stalk your prey across Seattle’s districts – faithfully reimagined in the World of Darkness. Meet the old blood founders present since the city’s birth and the new blood steering the tech money which is rapidly redefining the city. Everyone has hidden agendas – so choose your allies wisely.

Find your place among competing factions, each with their own unique traits and stories, in the war for Seattle’s blood trade. The world will judge you by the company you keep, but remember: no one’s hands stay clean forever.
