Now Playing: Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodhunt Trailer | PlayStation Showcase 2021
The blog also reveals that the ability to purchase premium tokens will be shut off in late September, but they will become easier to earn so new cosmetics can continue to be unlocked. The team is also planning to make a few additions to Bloodhunt in its final update–including an in-game voting system for unlocking new features–which are intended to “ensure that the game continues to be interesting.”
Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodhunt is the latest live-service game to cease operations soon after launch, as it joins a list including Apex Legends Mobile, Knockout City, Rumbleverse, and Babylon’s Fall. It is one of the few games that will remain operational after active development has ceased, with Marvel’s Avengers from Square Enix being a notable example.
For the curious, Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodhunt is available to download now for PC and PlayStation 5.
