Sharkmob has announced that the Public Early Access: Founder’s Season for Vampire The Masquerade: Bloodhunt is coming to an end. Throughout Early Access, the stats have been insane. With over 2 Million accounts created and 26,512,898 kills clocked up!
Feedback received from players throughout Early Access has helped Sharkmob immensely understand where the game shines. More importantly though where they want to apply even greater focus to meet the high standards that both they as developers and the players expect.
The plan was to launch the game this year for both PC and PS5 as they moved out of the Early Access: Founder’s Season. Based on key learnings from this early season, they have decided to take the time needed to address the valuable feedback and postpone the release until early 2022. During this period Sharkmob will take the public servers offline.
Vampire The Masquerade: Bloodhunt Founder’s Season is coming to an end and public servers will close on Monday 22nd of November at 10:00 CET.
