[Review] Vampire: The Masquerade – Swansong
Posted on 1 year ago by Dawn in Reviews, Switch | 0 comments
System: Switch
Release date: September 28, 2023 (Europe) / December 5 (North America)
Developer: Big Bad Wolf
Publisher: Nacon
Vampire the Masquerade is a series that has been around for a surprisingly long time, lurking in the shadows of tabletop roleplaying games since the early 90s as part of the larger World of Darkness series. It has been adapted into video game format a few times over the years, and Vampire: The Masquerade – Swansong is the third of these games to come to Nintendo’s console. Unfortunately, it has not been worth the extremely long wait, and is something I wouldn’t recommend to even the most avid fans of the series.

Original (9/10): The Switch version of Vampire: The Masquerade – Swansong finally has a release date. According to an eShop listing, Nacon will be publishing it on September 28, 2023.
Vampire: The Masquerade – Swansong was first announced in 2019 while it was confirmed for Switch a year later. The launch was first scheduled for 2021. However, in July 2021, it was delayed to February 2022. We then heard that very month that the Switch version would be coming at a later date. The game ended up launching in May 2022, so it’s been a lengthy wait for the Switch version.

Today, publisher Nacon and developer Big Bad Wolf shared a new developer diary for Vampire: The Masquerade – Swansong that largely focuses on the game’s music. In it, composer Olivier Deriviere discusses his creative process for composing the themes of each of the heroes.
The game has a few key characters with Galeb’s sense of justice and honor, Leysha’s tenderness for her daughter, and Emem’s desire for freedom and her status as queen of the night.
