Vampire: The Masquerade – Oaths & Ashes dropped the demo for its upcoming game on Steam, alongside a trailer to showcase some of the demo. Developed and published by Revive The Spark, this indie game is led by the choices you make. Follow the path of “Alice” or “Lenz” protagonists of the game as they undergoes their wants.
By White Wolf and Revive The Spark, the Demo Trailer highlights Alice. She’s searching for control in the city of Berlin that’s full of “knives,” she’s currently undergoing this mission seemingly due to an “oath.” It’s definitely not her first set of oaths as Alice states that she’s “kept every oath I ever made. To those who stood in my way,” well, the trailer shows a quick montage of vampire fangs hinting at death, before she ends her statement saying “they paid for it.”
Through a map, the trailer expands on who Alice works for: “Lucinde” who “wants Berlin back in Camaria.” On the map, a sector has Alice and Lenz’s faces highlighted on different points, with other points filled with a question Mark, showcasing seemingly unexplored people or stories in different locals. Through talking points, players can choose what Alice wants to say, to Lucinde and all the other characters shown in the trailer. With two to three options available, players run the storyline and presumably how everything maps out in the end. However, the story isn’t so easy as the trailer hints that Berlin isn’t so receptive to Alice’s mission, and there’s a tightrope to conquer, as Berlin has people and powers of its own such. Alice herself states “The city doesn’t care. It broke everyone who tried to claim it.” But she intends to fulfill her promise to the end. Vampire: The Masquerade – Oaths & Ashes, will come out sometime later this year, while the release date isn’t set, those interested can wishlist the game, read it’s About page and follow the team’s socials to gain more information.
