Dear members of #vamily, how are you? :) Finally, this day has come and Vampire: The Masquerade - Coteries of New York has launched! First of all, we'd like to thank every member of our community - we were amazed by the scope of interest, so many questions and kind words we read during the last couple of months since the Steam page went live. We also want to thank Paradox and White Wolf Publishing veterans, without whom Coteries of New York would never happen. Although we self-publish the game, Paradox, who is the license holder, helped us much more we could even dream of and hours of conversations with White Wolf Publishing writers and editors, as well as social media ninjas were absolutely priceless - thanks to the community and the dedicated team of helpers on the Paradox side the development process was going smoothly, even though no development process is totally free of setbacks, delays and... surprises. Still, the game is ready and available to all players, who use Windows. We may add Linux and Mac OS support after the launch and we will keep you updated! The development of the game has ended, but our support does not. We have some things planned for the next months, including the console release (PS4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch) in Q1 2020. We also encourage you to take a look at Coteries' launch trailer below!

We're always open to listen to your feedback and face every possible criticism, of course :) We encourage you to post your reviews and the more feedback you share, the more information we obtain, the more fixes and improvements we'll be able to add to provide you with the best Vampire: The Masquerade, single player, narrative heavy experience possible! Thank you again, it's just the beginning of our Coteries of New York journey and we're honored that you decided to travel with us! Best, Jacek @ Draw Distance dev team

Vampire: The Masquerade - Coteries of New York presents the conflict between two vampiric factions: the traditionalist Camarilla and the fiercely independent Anarchs among the landmarks and night lights of the Big Apple. It's a unique, atmospheric, single-player narrative experience, set in the rich universe of Vampire: The Masquerade 5th Edition.
- Choose one of three pre-defined characters and play as a Ventrue, Toreador or Brujah
- Each playable character offers a selection of powers (Disciplines), different ethical approaches to certain issues, and unique dialogue lines
- Character-oriented quests allow you to meet four unique non-playable characters: a Tremere sorcerer, a Nosferatu detective, a Gangrel of conflicted loyalties and a Malkavian multifoliate online personality with their own agendas. Win their hearts and minds and up to two of them will assist you in the finale
- Depending on your choice of the Clan you will be able to see the events from a distinct perspective. One playthrough is not enough to see all the game has to offer!
- Different paths leading to a grand finale that will leave you surprised and eager to see more
- Suitable for both Vampire: The Masquerade veterans, and fans of mature narrative-driven games who are newcomers to the setting
The game does justice to the mature themes of the World of Darkness, and takes advantage of the excellent atmosphere of the source material.
What is Vampire: The Masquerade – Coteries of New York?
Vampire: The Masquerade - Coteries of New York aims to translate the complex and fascinating world of vampires, their nightly struggles for power and attempts to hold on to their humanity.
How do you play Coteries of New York
You act as a newly-fledged vampire in New York. You have to learn what it means to be one of the Kindred in a huge, vibrant, contemporary metropolis. On your way you’ll meet different NPCs – other vampires, thin-bloods, ghouls, humans... and more. You will perform tasks that will put test your humanity and take part in a complex and often brutal struggle for power between the Camarilla and the Anarchs. You’ll interact with key NPCs - form unique bonds and relations and learn your undead companions’ deepest secrets... or see them abandon you. You’ll feast on the living and will ask yourself about the very nature of humanity. You will have to keep track of your Hunger or the Beast inside you will take over. You will make choices for the character, including which storylines to pursue and how to approach the different situations presented. You will take part in a narrative experience with branching dialogue choices, memorable characters - all among iconic locales of the Big Apple. You will be able to use Disciplines that will help you in combat and conversations, but be aware that every use of a Discipline may increase the level of your Hunger. Left unchecked, your Hunger will force you to give control over to the Beast: a dark side of your nature which wishes only to feed... no matter the cost.
