Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2 has been delayed once more, now set to release in October 2025. This decision comes after the game's official Twitter (X) account announced the new release window on March 26, alongside a video update. In this video, Executive Producer Marco Behrmann shared insights into the game's development, stating, "The status of the game right now is that the game is done. We are currently working on bug fixing, stability, and performance so we can deliver the best experience to you guys once it releases."
Paradox Interactive has been actively engaging with the community through Dev Diaries, which have covered characters, stories, and game mechanics. However, these updates will be paused to allow the development team to focus on enhancing the game's quality.
