'Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2' is a new single-player RPG that takes inspiration from a tabletop game of the same name.
Players will act as a human that's been turned into a vampire, who must advance in the game to strengthen their abilities. Once they've upgraded their character enough, players will be able to join one of the five vampire clans, which will allow them to further develop their power.
The story takes place in 21st-century Seattle, and leads the player to live a hidden double life while completing a series of quests and side stories. Although players are limited to starting out as a "thin-blood" vampire, they can customize their character's gender and appearance, and choose their human background to receive unique starting bonuses.
