Hello there. The over all theme of Bloodhunt is for surviving Camarilla vampires to destroy Anarchs in the city, who have (according to a Camarilla theory) brought down the wrath of the 2nd Inquisition on them. By taking out the Anarchs they hope to restore the Masquerade and ensure that the hunters leave - thinking they killed all kindred. In the struggle to take out the Anarchs, it is of course expected to not reveal your vampiric powers to kine (thus the Masquerade gameplay mechanic in the game).

Confirming what has already been answered above. We have no connection to the Bloodlines 2 project beyond VtM. And we had no connection to the studio working on it either.

Hello Bloodhunt Community!

During our Bloodhunt performance investigation we have identified a possible bug with our shader optimization process which is leading to all shaders not being properly optimized. When this happens, the game will instead attempt to optimize them at the moment that you trigger them while playing the game which leads to sudden performance drops for a few seconds.

As a workaround for now, if you run into these issues while playing, please do not change your graphics settings within the game and instead play the game for a few matches, you should see the performance issues appear less frequently until the game has had the opportunity to run into and optimize the remaining shaders until there are none left and you should no longer see any sudden dips.

We hope that this workaround works for you, and if not please do let us know.

Please note that this workaround applies to using DX12 only.

Thanks again for playing... Read more

Hello Bloodhunt Community!

We are very happy that we managed to get the Early Access Act 2 update out to you yesterday, and we wanted to take a moment to also share the additional things that we discovered with the release since then.

We accidentally released a little free surprise that was not fully completed yet, which lets you play as shirtless.
You can see how it's going to look when finished here:

We will indeed improve the report feature. We don’t have an exact ETA yet though.

Hello DoomBox. The anti-cheat is active and we are banning people on a regular basis. And blocking cheats. Sadly cheating is widespread with online games and cheaters keep creating new ways to abuse the game systems. So it is an ongoing battle. We appreciate all help in our efforts to keep cheaters away, so please help by reporting all suspect behavior.

Thank you!

Hello Bloodhunt Community!

Since Bloodhunt is in Early Access, this is the perfect opportunity to try new things. We heard the community asking for Duos and so we are getting ready to give it a try. To make sure that we would get the best possible matchmaking experience by getting a healthy pool of players for this mode, we would temporarily replace the Trio queue with the Duo queue.

We are also unable to remove solo as that would mean that solo players would not be able to play the game at all unless they find someone else to play with.

Now, we would love to get the blessing from our community so please take the chance to make your voice heard by participating in our Community Survey. By doing so, you will contribute to helping us make the better choice, one that is endorsed by the majority of our players.

You can find the survey here:

We are currently looking into ways of "onboarding" new players in a way that allow them to learn the game more, before being thrown "to the wolves".

Hello all.

All reported cheaters get investigated. All confirmed cheaters get banned. Confirmation is obtained through various means - not just whatever information is sent by the reporter (though the more information that gets sent, the better it is). If we cannot prove that cheating took place, we can't ban the person either.

Cheaters are being banned on a daily basis (some manually, some automatically), and cheats are being blocked / patched. It is a constant struggle and we are very grateful for your support in this!

Hello!
We have found a possible fix for an issue that would cause some players to experience a black screen when loading into the game, and only being able to hear sound.

Have a look:

We do not sell anyones data. That has been made clear repeatedly. The game wasn't made for free either, I can promise you that. But it IS free to play with an optional store and paid battlepass. That is just one of several business models you can apply to a game. We chose it because it is fair and well suited for an online game with a focus on vanity and character customization.

Now feel free to discuss the connection to Vampire the Masquerade but stop making bogus claims of us selling user data.

Also I feel newer players left after a day or two because there is no built in guide for the controls for Mouse & Keyboard, or for controller users either. It's a guessing game, and sometimes people don't have the patience to sit through some random youtube player guides. This game should have more than the very limited starting guide which does not really teach players enough with one run.. Maybe the Devs could add a training zone where newbs can learn their skills from a guide? Just an idea..

Hey Astrid. Love that name by the way. The idea ... Read more
