Vampire: The Masquerade-Justice Is an interesting VR RPG. While its story isn’t one that grabbed me, the gameplay more than made up for it with its bloody skills and stealth-based mechanics.
Destructoid: 6.5 / 10 by Steven Mills
If you’re looking for a stealth VR game, Vampire: The Masquerade – Justice will certainly scratch that itch. The story is intriguing and thought out enough to make it worthwhile if you care about Vampire: The Masquerade. And it’s very evident that Fast Travel Games aimed to fit into the overall material setting. But the underwhelming RPG elements, primarily the Vampire Powers, as well as buggy controls and AI, make the experience fall a bit short of what I think this bloodsucking journey could have been.
WayTooManyGames: 6.5 / 10 by Jordan Hawes
Vampire: The Masquerade – Justice is a game I was hoping to get more from. The world from which it pulls its content from seems rich and full of crazy things. Being able to be a vampire and actually use slick moves, and suck the blood from enemies in VR sounded so cool. Marry that with the inspiration from Dishonored, and I truly thought this would be a hit. Unfortunately, it just turned out to be a middle-of-the-road stealth game that didn’t capitalize on the unique setting and ideas of being a vampire.
Vampire: The Masquerade - Justice Description
Vampire: The Masquerade – Justice is an action adventure game with RPG and stealth elements set in an urban fantasy universe known as the World of Darkness. It's a VR game created by Fast Travel Games, also responsible for Apex Construct, Wraith: The Oblivion - Afterlife and Cities: VR.
Plot
Vampire: The Masquerade - Justice is set in Venice. We play as a vampire traversing the city's dark alleys, hunting enemies and following the trail of a sinister conspiracy.
Mechanics
Vampire: The Masquerade – Justice is a first-person game (FPP). Venice, as portrayed in here, is filled with dark alleys, canals, shadowy catacombs and luxurious palaces. The player must explore the city, talk to some of its inhabitants, complete story quests, side missions and make difficult choices.
As befitting a vampire, we must drink blood to fight off starvation. Due to our nature we must stay in the shadows and rely on stealth to eliminate threats. The player has several useful skills at their disposal; Cloak of Shadows grants temporary invisibility, Cauldron of Blood boils our victims from the inside out, while Shadow Trap drags them into Oblivion. They also wield a crossbow, used in combat and to solve occasionally encountered environmental puzzles. As we progress through the game we develop our character, unlocking new abilities and upgrading already owned ones.
Technical aspects
The visuals of Vampire: The Masquerade - Justice are decent. The atmospheric locations bathed in darkness, only illuminated by lanterns and neons are especially appealing.
