Vampire: The Masquerade — Coteries Of New York
Gameplay for Vampire: The Masquerade — Coteries Of New York is here and it looks like a visual version of the tabletop Vampire: The Masquerade
There have been so many updates for so many games in the Vampire: The Masquerade line as of late and we have yet another one for a title that is launching on the PC on December 4th of this year. It will also be coming to the Switch early in 2020 and by now you might know that we are talking about the other narrative title coming from Draw Distance in this line. You might remember when we heard about Vampire: The Masquerade — Coteries Of New York a while back. If not, welcome to your first introduction. If you do, get ready as we have some gameplay to look at to get us all excited for this new experience in the franchise that will make it into cannon for the tabletop version of the game too. All of which is extremely interesting to take in.
What is interesting to see here for Vampire: The Masquerade — Coteries Of New York is that unlike the other narrative titles or games that will be in the 5th Edition of the tabletop game, this one plays more like a regular tabletop game without a Storyteller. Well, at least in the usual form as the game will be walking us through a story in the same way but in a digital way. It would not be a video game if that was not the case. We just get to choose our own adventure here in the World Of Darkness here and shape our Vampire: The Masquerade though the various clans we can start as and lay through the mysteries involved. I only wish that we would stop going with the unsanctioned embrace storyline that seems to be all the rage for all of these games out there. Have a look at just how this game is going to play out for us all just below.
