    Bloodhunt is a robust and remarkably well-crafted battle royale. It might not bring the genre back from the dead entirely, but it’s still a bloody good time. [Issue#15, p.96]

    Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodhunt turns us into vampires to show us the pros and cons. The formula of this Battle Royale offers a different proposal to what we know. The fights through the streets and rooftops of Prague will be part of the appeal of the game.

    Vampire The Masquerade Blood Hunt doesn't revolutionize the battle royal style, but brings some fresh new features thanks to a solid level design and nice gameplay options. A good BR game, a bit different from what we are now used to play.

    As battle royale efforts go, Bloodhunt is surprising; which is more than other like-minded efforts can lay claim to. Though cross play remains unbalanced against more capable PC players and concerns over balancing and map variety remain, Vampire: The Masquerade Bloodhunt nonetheless brings a scintillating blend of furious traversal, inspired PvE design and neat lore from the World of Darkness setting to fashion one of the most refreshing battle royale efforts in quite some time.

    This sort of game lives or dies on how much support it receives from the developers but at this point in time Bloodhunt is a blast that is sure to entertain Battle Royale players and fans of the Vampire IP.

    Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodhunt is a pleasant and interesting battle royale, with some original ideas (classes, powers, civilians to bite) and an extremely dynamic gameplay.

    Vampire :The Masquerade: Bloodhunt is a solid battle royale with huge potential that it’s not quite reaching just yet. The traversal and rooftop battles are huge fun and the map is terrific. So long as Sharkmob believe in it, there could be something pretty special here down the line.

    Even in its final version, Vampire The Masquerade Bloodhunt continues to be a fun product with enormous potential that, however, struggles to live up to expectations.

    Imagine thinking you can create a battle royale on console and not offer controller customization. No one wants to play a movement based ability shooter and be locked into an archaic control scheme using X to jump and O to crouch/slide instead of R3/L3. The game might actually be amazing but this fundamental flaw just kills it. This could have been a breakout game in world of droll generic fps cash grabs instead its an unbalanced poorly optimized mess that leaves everyone shaking their heads in disappointment. A 7 would be worth your time.. this is a 7 for perhaps the first hour then your realize its 6 at most. Honestly I want to give it a 1 so bad bc its actual garbage but i don't do troll scores    … Full Review »

It’s not buggyA game no one wanted, another battle royale, another deleted game. Honestly this game is just total garbage. It’s just not fun. It’s not buggy or anything but I played a match then deleted it. It’s free but not even worth my time honestly. You can see where some of the mechanics would be great in an actual rpg, but another battle royale? Seriously? The shooting is just bland, the world map is pretty cool although totally shallow. I just can’t imagine people will play this at all after trying it out. They really just need to release them real game and stop trolling us with these “World of darkness” spin-offs no one wants or cares about. Oh and did I mention it wants your money for micro transactions!?! It seems as if that’s this whole games purpose for existing and I’m not down for that. Try it if you must, but it really is just a dud.… Full Review »
