Vampire: The Masquerade 5th Edition set for late August release, pre-Orders available April 28th.
If you’re not familiar with White Wolf Entertainment for some reason, chances are that if you’ve enjoyed vampire, werewolf or supernatural lore in any format in the past 25 years — be it pen-and-paper, digital game, novel, television, feature film or even Live Action RPG (LARP) — it’s pretty safe to say one or more of the White Wolf Entertainment brands and the overarching World of Darkness universe has directly influenced your experience.
The World of Darkness is a best-selling roleplaying game universe second only to Dungeons & Dragons and Pathfinder in terms of sales and brand recognition. Over 8 million books, tremendous volumes of fan-fiction, a TV-series, a hit collectible card game and several video games — Vampire: The Masquerade – Redemption, Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines and the Hunter: The Reckoning series — have cemented World of Darkness as one of the bravest, sexiest and most forward-thinking subcultural touchstones as far back as the 1990s.
A new era for the Kindred vampire kind begins soon. Starting on April 28, 2018, pre-orders begin for the long-awaited Vampire: The Masquerade 5th Edition (V5). Shipping in August 2018, this newest set of roleplaying rules continues a dark and sexy tale rooted in the exploration of evil and morality, challenging players to confront or channel their inner monster and exploit the weaknesses of society to satiate their own hunger for power — and thirst for blood.
Players will envelop themselves in a story that explores real-world politics and the global order in a fresh, contemporary setting through a fantasy roleplaying lens that asks, “what if those in power of today’s mortal institutions were really undying?” V5 propels the series into the 21st century while building upon the proud heritage of previous editions for a game built for existing fans and newcomers alike.
The release of Vampire: The Masquerade 5th Edition (V5) is just the very beginning of what this crazy, creative and highly influential company has planned for its brand. CEO Tobias Sjögren and his charismatic team would be delighted to chat with you about some of the crazy things White Wolf has planned for the near future — just keep meetings to daylight hours …
