Game Informer - "Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2 doesn't live up to the modern standards set by other open-world role-playing games, but once you get past that, it's an acceptable vampire experience."
Bloodlines 2’s director wanted The Chinese Room to drop the sequel name.

Our review of Vampire: The Masqerade - Bloodlines 2 goes over the gameplay, story, music, and more to give our most thorough opinion.

The Chinese Room writes: "We apologize to our players that the new cosmetics in our Halloween Update only applied to new save files. We have now fixed this, and you're free to see and apply all the new cosmetics in your current playthrough. This hotfix is now live for PC players. We will update our console version as soon as it passes all checks. Thank you."
