There’s nonetheless no information on long-awaited RPG Bloodlines 2, however we do have one more Vampire: The Masquerade recreation on the best way. This time round it is Justice, a brand new VR journey that sends gamers to the darkish streets of Venice in quest of the reality behind a darkish conspiracy.
Revealed throughout in the present day’s Meta Quest Gaming Showcase, Vampire: The Masquerade – Justice follows the story of Justice, a member of the Banu Haqim clan, who travels to the house of the death-worshipping Hecata clan to trace down and punish the killers of their sire, and uncover the thriller behind the theft of an historic relic.
Gamers will use a mix of stealth, blood magic, and a hidden crossbow to take down enemies and resolve puzzles as they develop in energy by upgrading their talents alongside separate stealth, fight, and stamina ability timber. Alongside the “gritty essential narrative,” there can even be a number of facet missions to tackle, and distinctive dialog choices in character interactions.
One of the best a part of the expertise, although, stands out as the easy sightseeing: Developer Quick Journey Video games promised a grim journey by a darkish Venice unseen by vacationers, crammed with “murky alleyways, ensanguined canals, forgotten catacombs, and opulent palazzos.”
It positively appears to be like like an attention-grabbing place:
I do not assume a VR recreation goes to fill the void left by the still-MIA Bloodlines 2, however the trailer appears to seize the Vampire temper nicely sufficient, and I’ve to confess that I had related qualms about Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodhunt, a World of Darkness battle royale that debuted final yr, and it turned out to be actually good. (Which was not sufficient to put it aside, sadly.) And the setting, a darkish and gritty outdated metropolis that goes unseen through the day, looks as if an excellent match for the immersive perspective of VR.
Justice will really be developer Quick Journey Video games’ second VR tackle the World of Darkness: In 2021, it launched the VR-exclusive Wraith: The Oblivion – Afterlife, one other creepy story of undeath and thriller. It was nicely obtained by VR specialty websites, however did not fare fairly so nicely on Steam, the place it holds a “combined” score over 58 consumer evaluations. Hopefully Justice will land a bit higher.
Vampire: The Masquerade – Justice is about to return out in late 2023 and might be obtainable for the Meta Quest 2 and Quest 3 (which was formally introduced in the present day), in addition to PlayStation VR2.
