Independent developer Fast Travel Games announced the release date of Vampire: The Masquerade – Justice, the Virtual Reality adventure RPG set in the World of Darkness.
The game will be available starting November 2nd for PS VR2 and Meta Quest platforms (Meta Quest 2 and 3, Meta Quest Pro). Vampire: The Masquerade – Justice is priced at $29.99, but both stores offer a 10% pre-order discount. Pre-orders also get an exclusive skin for the main character’s hand-attached crossbow.
The story follows the journey of a vampire of the Banu Haqim clan who ventures to Venice to discover what happened to his sire and the location of a stolen relic.
Justice will get to explore the darker side of the beautiful city, from blood-soaked canals to forgotten catacombs and opulent, decadent palaces. The main narrative is being described as ‘gritty’, though there are also several side missions where players can talk with NPCs to discover the full scope of the conspiracy and make their own choices.
While the main character will be strong from the get-go, he’ll get even stronger over the course of Vampire: The Masquerade – Justice by completing missions and optional objectives. With the experience gained, he can upgrade and purchase new vampire Disciplines to improve stealth, combat, and high-speed traversal.
For example, you could hide in plain sight with the Cloak of Shadows ability, boil your enemies’ blood from the inside out with Cauldron of Blood, or surprise them with a Shadow Trap. Of course, drinking the blood of mortals or other vampires will be needed to keep the ever-present Hunger at bay. The aforementioned crossbow will also turn out handy in both combat and exploration.
PAX West 2023 attendees can play Vampire: The Masquerade – Justice this weekend at booth #2705, experiencing the thrill of exploring Venice as a vampire of the Kindred in VR.
