Another faction rises in Vampire The Masquerade Bloodlines 2

Paradox Interactive have announced the fourth Faction, that players may choose to join in Vampire The Masquerade Bloodlines 2, it is time to meet The Newcomers. This newest group join the already announced Pioneers, Camarilla and Baron.

The Newcomers are Seattle’s most mysterious faction - no one knows where in Europe they immigrated from, or why Prince Cross suddenly granted them exclusive access to the University District hunting ground. This faction is mostly made of up of Tremere - blood-magic obsessed warlocks, sorcerers, academics, students, and more. Lead by the charismatic “Professor” Viktor Goga, The Newcomers are at odds with The Baron, who view them as their most dangerous competition.

To recap, factions in Bloodlines 2 are groups of Kindred united under a common banner, often owning a hunting ground or tied together by a political or economic goal. Factions compete with each other for control, influence, and, most of all, delicious delicious blood. In the game, players will join a faction, work against others, and manoeuvre pawns in a deadly game of politics with a direct impact on the future of Seattle.

The game is coming in 2020 to PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
