Activision today announced the official release date for Troika's action/RPG Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines. Contractually Activision was not allow to release Bloodlines prior to Half-Life 2, due to it using Valve's Source engine, so that is probably why it took so long to pin down an exact date. Now that Half-Life 2 has been dated Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines will arrive in stores on the same date, being November 16, 2004.
Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines combines intense first-person action with an open, non-linear world, rich character development and an immersive storyline. The game plunges players into the dark and gritty vampire underworld of modern day L.A. as a creature of the night, interacting with and battling mortals and other creatures of darkness with an incredible array of vampire powers, skills and traits.
