Draw Distance announced today ‘Vampire: The Masquerade – Shadows of New York’, a stand-alone expansion that connects directly to Vampire: The Masquerade – Coteries of New York.
The game here says: You are a nobody. An outcast in your own vampire sect. A political prisoner of no particular value. An immigrant who never found his roots in an immigrant city. A chain smoker, whose favorite pastime is staring blankly at the streets of a fast food restaurant at 4:00 a.m. The sinking feeling in the pit of your stomach tells you that you are doomed to failure, and distorted voices from the shadows seem to agree. The curse of your clan makes interaction with everyday technology difficult. Dissociation is your natural state.
But when New York’s anarch leader of all the bloodsuckers in the metropolis comes to a cruel end, you’re the one chosen to investigate. So don’t make a mistake: this is obviously a trap, another step in the terrible game of Jyhad, the eternal struggle for power between belligerent vampire generations. But you are Lasombra, and if you know one thing, then the following: If the Ventrue Prince and his followers underestimate you, they will deeply regret it.
Vampire: The Masquerade – Shadows of New York is a visual novel set in the rich universe of Vampire: The Masquerade. While Coteries was a general introduction to the world portrayed in the 5th edition of the successful tabletop role-playing game, Shadows presents a more personal and unique story.
Vampire: The Masquerade – Shadows of New York will be released in 2020.
