THE HARROWING JOURNEY OF A VAMPIRIC COURIER
The game is set during a tumultuous time for the undead. When the Second Inquisition began unveiling and annihilating vampires globally, you, an undead courier, became the elders’ last resort. For a decade, you’ve navigated the desert expanses between cities, ferrying critical information and supplies. However, a returning acquaintance with a disruptive scheme threatens to topple the precarious life you’ve crafted.
BATTLE, EVASION, AND THE ART OF SURVIVAL
“Vampire: The Masquerade — Night Road” presents multiple survival strategies.

Utilize blood magic, superhuman strength, and nocturnal beasts to elude destruction—or simply force your foes off the road and continue your journey.
A RACE AGAINST TIME AND DEATH
In this adrenaline-pumping adventure, each moment matters. As a courier, you dash across the desert, carrying secrets, promises, and threats and doing whatever is necessary to complete your mission. Yet, when the assignment ends, the question lingers—will you capitalize on the ensuing chaos?
THE SUSTENANCE OF BLOOD AND THE ULTIMATE TABOO
