Press release:
Lesquin, 1 October 2021.
NACON and Big Bad Wolf Studio are pleased to introduce the third and final playable character in “Vampire: The Masquerade – Swansong” in a new trailer.

Galeb and Leysha, the first two heroes introduced, today make way for the third playable character in Vampire: The Masquerade – Swansong. In this new video we meet Emem. Although she looks like a young woman with magnetic charm, this vampire is actually 100 years old. A former jazz diva, she now belongs to the Toreador clan after having been transformed by Hilda, the love of her life.

The video depicts an attack in the streets of Boston, but the prey is not necessarily the one who seems to be the weakest… Emem ultimately reveals her powers, from the Disciplines of Celerity and Presence, which can make her virtually invisible.
