Vampire: The Masquerade – Swansong Pushed to May

Publisher NACON announced that the release of Vampire: The Masquerade – Swansong has been delayed. Previously scheduled for February 2022, the game will now release for PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch on May 19, 2022. A message regarding the delay is below.

Vampire: The Masquerade – Swansong is being developed by Big Bad Wolf and will utilise the rules of the fifth edition of the Vampire: The Masquerade tabletop game. The game is set around the vampire communities of Boston and Hartford’s attempt to join forces. Players control three vampires — Galeb, Leysha, and Emem — from different clans in the Boston Camarilla.

With Swansong, we are taking the narrative-RPG formula so core to our studio DNA and scaling up as we adapt the systems from the Vampire: The Masquerade tabletop into a video game experience. The political intrigue and supernatural mystery baked into the setting are a perfect fit for the story we want to tell.

Our focus is on crafting a world that draws you in, that requires you to make difficult decisions and live with the consequences. Swansong features lots of characters, choices, dialogues, and opportunities to decide how the story plays and our ultimate focus is on quality. With this in mind, we’ve made the difficult decision to delay the launch of Vampire: The Masquerade – Swansong from February 2022 to May 2022.

Vampire: The Masquerade – Swansong will be available on May 19th, 2022. We can’t wait to share more with you, so stay tuned. Thank you very much for your patience and all of your support.
