The Chinese Room and Paradox Interactive revealed more information about Phyre, the main character of upcoming RPG Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2, last week. As part of that information dump, the developer mentioned that Phyre would be able to join one of four vampire clans, which would all be revealed in the coming weeks.

Well, the first reveal is at hand: One of Phyre’s family options will be the rebellious Brujah Clan. Often misjudged as troublemakers, the Brujah are simply a very passionate bunch.

Players joining the Brujah with Phyre will obtain access to disciplines revolving around a brutal melee combat style, which emphasizes building momentum, grabbing enemies, and throwing them around. If you like slamming people against walls, this might be the play style for you.

A full list of disciplines available from joining the Brujah will become available next year, but we won’t have to wait long for the reveal of the second playable clan – that’s coming up next week.

A trailer featuring the Brujah Clan is available below:

Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2 is set to be released in Fall 2024.
