WEBVTT 00:00.000 --> 00:09.280 Hello everyone and welcome back to another episode of GRTV News. We're kicking the week 00:09.280 --> 00:13.200 off by talking about something that took place over the week and a really unusual and bizarre 00:13.200 --> 00:18.320 story if you ask me. But it's about a game that we, for some reason, we keep talking 00:18.320 --> 00:22.080 about or we have talked about over the years and yet doesn't seem to be any closer to launch 00:22.080 --> 00:25.680 or never seems to feel like it's getting any closer to launch. And that game is Vampire 00:25.680 --> 00:32.480 the Masquerade Bloodlines 2. The game has been one of those titles that really seems to fit the 00:32.480 --> 00:37.520 bill of like development hell. It's been, it's gone through various different developers, been 00:37.520 --> 00:43.200 delayed a bunch of different times and well this news story is exactly more of that because the 00:43.200 --> 00:48.160 game has been pushed to 2024 and a new developer has been brought on to, well, push it over the 00:48.160 --> 00:54.880 finish line. So with that being the case let's take a look at the news. Vampire the Masquerade 00:54.880 --> 01:00.400 Bloodlines 2 delayed to 2024 in new trailer. The creators of Dear Esther, Amnesia and Machine for 01:00.400 --> 01:06.240 Pigs and Everybody's Gone to the Rapture will take the project across the finish line. Three months 01:06.240 --> 01:10.240 ago Paradox Interactive, Paradox Interactive suddenly announced Vampire the Masquerade 01:10.240 --> 01:14.560 Bloodlines 2 would resurface and be shown off again in September. Very interesting news as the 01:14.560 --> 01:18.720 last thing we heard about the project before that was a delay to 2022 and a mysterious change in 01:18.720 --> 01:23.440 development, developer studio. Fortunately the publisher kept its word and more this time around 01:23.440 --> 01:27.040 because Paradox hasn't just given us a new Vampire the Masquerade Bloodlines 2 trailer, 01:27.040 --> 01:30.640 we're also told that the Chinese Room is the new developer of the game and that it's set to launch 01:30.640 --> 01:36.640 in fall 2024. A fascinating choice when these are the creators of Dear Esther, Amnesia and Machine 01:36.640 --> 01:42.240 for Pigs and Everybody's Gone to the Rapture that are also working on Still Wakes the Deep right now. 01:42.240 --> 01:46.160 Still the glimpses of gameplay in the trailer makes it clear that we're in for a fairly action 01:46.160 --> 01:50.320 heavy game with a bloody close quarters combat when it hopefully launches in a bit more than a 01:50.320 --> 01:55.600 year. I'm not going to show the trailers but we've got two new trailers, the one that reveals that 01:57.840 --> 02:01.680 the Chinese Room is the new developer and the other one that sort of shows off a bit of 02:01.680 --> 02:07.600 gameplay here and there. Little bits of gameplay you know it's not really a gameplay trailer but 02:07.600 --> 02:12.080 yeah it's got that fall 2024 release date at the end of it which yeah if you're looking forward 02:12.080 --> 02:19.600 to this game that's when you can look forward to it arriving hopefully. Whenever I hear these 02:19.600 --> 02:25.120 announcements about Vampire the Masquerade Bloodlines 2 I can't help but feel a little bit 02:26.000 --> 02:30.880 uncertain about it. Even though that you know we've been told it's coming out in fall 2024 and 02:30.880 --> 02:35.200 it's a new development studio that's come on to bring the game across the finish line and all that 02:35.200 --> 02:40.480 I still can't help but feel like there's more to this potentially. Like you will be getting a 02:40.480 --> 02:44.880 similar announcement in summer 2024 or something like that to say that they need more time with 02:44.880 --> 02:48.960 the game or something. I'm not too sure what exactly it will be but I just every time I hear 02:48.960 --> 02:52.320 more about this game and the things that it's gone through I just feel a little bit skeptical 02:52.320 --> 02:57.920 about it. So yeah we'll see maybe you know by the time that we get to 2024 in a few months time 02:59.280 --> 03:04.160 Paradox will start really cranking up this game and revealing more about it because well it's 03:04.160 --> 03:08.240 about time we learned more about it because this game was announced years and years and years ago 03:08.240 --> 03:11.440 at this point and it's been in development again through lots of different developers, 03:11.440 --> 03:14.880 lots of different studios and had lots of different delays. So it's about time that 03:14.880 --> 03:21.680 we get some meaningful information and content in regard to this sequel. But yeah as we know more 03:21.680 --> 03:25.360 be sure to keep posted and updated and otherwise this is well that's all the time we've got time 03:25.360 --> 03:31.040 for. So we'll be back now tomorrow for the next GRTV news and we'll see you all on the next one. 03:31.680 --> 03:34.080 Take care everyone.
