Paradox Interactive and White Wolf have released a new trailer for Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2, showcasing the Banu Haqim clan. The game will release on October 21, 2025.
Banu Haqim are described as the “Clan of the Hunt.” According to the trailer’s description, “Banu Haqim starts with ‘Celerity’, ‘Blood Sorcery’, and ‘Obfuscate” as clan affinities, and ‘Silence of Death: All your actions become entirely silent for a period after feeding’ as the passive ability.”
As you progress in the clan, you will be able to unlock the following Banu Haqim disciplines:
- “Bladed Hand”: Slash swiftly in front of you, beheading weaker opponents.
- “Split Second”: Move so fast that time appears to stop around you.
- “Mute”: Silence your target’s screams and weapons.
- “Unseen Aura”: Become temporarily invisible to enemies and civilians.
- “Unseen Passage” – Clan Perk: Can remain crouched whilst sprinting.

Paradox Interactive and White Wolf announced the sequel to 2004’s Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines in 2019. The developers proceeded to delay it to 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, and 2024. Recently, Paradox delayed it again to the first half of 2025. Now, it will finally release on October 21, 2025.
The Steam page describes the game as follows:
You are the Nomad — an elder vampire awakening from a century-long slumber, new to the modern nights. Trapped in your Blood is a stranger’s voice. This entity, a vampire detective known as Fabien, will be your guide to 21st-century Seattle. You will explore the city through his eyes as well as those of the Nomad, as you revisit a cold case from a hundred years ago that is threatening undead and mortal society alike.
