Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2 has been postponed indefinitely, while developer Hardsuit Labs will no longer be the lead developer of the game.
Paradox Interactive publisher shared the news on its official website and via Twitter, adding that Hardsuit Labs will no longer be “leading development”, but offering no explanation as to why this is happening now.
Although it is currently unclear whether Hardsuit Labs is completely leaving the project, Bloodlines 2 will now be worked on by a different studio. This means that not only has the 2021 release date been dropped, but Paradox has also stopped accepting orders for the game.
“As you noticed, we have been very quiet for a while. With that in mind, the first news we have for you is confirmation that Bloodlines 2 is still in development, ”explained Paradox Interactive.
If the statement is anything to do with, it seems that everything that happened with Hardsuit Labs is friendly, as Paradoxo notes “we would like to take this opportunity to honor Hardsuit Labs for their efforts and to thank them for their hard work on the project “.
“The studio did a tremendous job in laying the groundwork for the game and we hope that you, the community, will also appreciate your contribution to Bloodlines 2,” says the statement.
Paradox ends by saying that he is “grateful for your continued support throughout the game’s development” and that he hopes to share more with the community about the title soon.
Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2 was announced in 2019 and is scheduled for release on 2020 on PS4, Xbox One, PC with PS5 and Xbox Series X versions coming as well. However, just last year, the game was hit with a delay and the release date was postponed to 2021. Now, it seems, there is no release date, leaving fans in the dark about when they will finally have a chance to play the long awaited sequence.
