Paradox boss says Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2 is doing well, it's "a bit more of an action RPG" and "people who have seen it talk about Dishonored"

VTM Bloodlines 2 gameplay reveal.

After repeated delays, a change in studio, and barely dodging total cancellation, Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2 is apparently coming into form over at new developer The Chinese Room, according to CEO Mattias Lilja of publisher Paradox Interactive. 

Speaking with GamesIndustry, Lilja affirms that "changing developers is a pretty drastic measure, it is the step before you stop." When The Chinese Room inherited the project, Lilja says Paradox let them choose what ideas to keep, and "generally, it's a continuation of the same vision but they had to make it theirs." Bloodlines 2 is now scheduled for the first half of 2025, and seemingly on track to meet this date under this new vision.
