For fans of the World of Darkness universe, the wait for video game adaptations like Bloodlines 2 and Werewolf: The Apocalypse – Earthblood is torturous. The table top brand itself has had a bit of a rough going over the past few years, as well. Which is why the company announced earlier that Renegade Game Studios is now the publishing partner for its catalogue of tabletop role playing games (TTRPG).
Not only that, but World of Darkness also revealed it is bringing IP development of its story universes in-house, and is kicking things off with Vampire: The Masquerade Companion, a free digital supplement that brings new playable clans to Vampire: The Masquerade 5th Edition. Vampire: The Masquerade Companion will be available this December.
Led by World of Darkness Creative Lead Justin Achilli, World of Darkness will create the foundational material – including core TTRPG books – for all stories set in a World of Darkness franchise, including video games, comics, and other forms of media. Renegade Game Studios, working with local partners globally, will broaden the offering with additional TTRPG products.
“Renegade and World of Darkness worked closely together on Vampire: The Masquerade – Rivals and the team proved their passion for our brands and alignment with our values in that collaboration,” said Sean Greaney, Brand Manager for World of Darkness at Paradox Interactive. “Our joint goal is to ensure that there will be no disruption of service for fans looking to get their hands on Vampire: The Masquerade 5th Edition books.”
