Vampire: The Masquerade has an obvious corner on vampire RPGs, but indie studio Party for Introverts is switching things up a bit with their own game, Cabernet. Touted as a supernatural narrative RPG set in a world of aristocratic vampires, Cabernet will launch on Steam in early 2024, and has a teaser trailer to go along with the announcement.
Cabernet is set in 19th century Eastern Europe. You are Liza, a young vampire struggling with her morality and the supernatural world she has been pulled into. Straddle the worlds of the living and the undead as you explore an atmospheric small town, and navigate a sophisticated story about social conflict, alcoholism, and corruption. Get to know this society’s human and supernatural inhabitants and decide who will be your next meal, interacting through dialogue and wrestling with moral choices that can have far-reaching consequences.
However, seeing as Liza is a vampire, she must decide her next move before the sun rises. Use the many vampiric powers at your disposal to stave off hunger, transforming into a bat, hypnotising your prey, or turning
invisible. Will you drink just enough to survive, or be consumed by the thrill of the hunt?
“Creating Cabernet has allowed us to explore our undying love of vampiric lore and build a world with themes deeply important and personal to us, including ethics and morality, alcoholism, and attempting to
find hope in seemingly hopeless times and places,” said Arseniy Klishin and Laura Gray of Party for Introverts. “We couldn’t be more excited to finally reveal our game to players.”
