Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines is a visually stunning first-person role-playing game that combines intense action with an open, non-linear world. Developed by Troika Games and based on White Wolf's pen-and-paper RPG series, the game plunges players into the dark vampire underworld of modern day Los Angeles. Players inhabit a creature of the night and have access to incredible vampire powers, skills, and traits which they can use to interact with mortals and other creatures of darkness in order to battle them. Built using Valve Source Technology -the same engine used for Half Life 2-, Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines offers an immersive storyline designed to create a captivating experience for gamers.
