A brand new trailer for Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2! World of Darkness says that it will release in the first half of 2025. No specific date yet.

I'm sure they are and I'm sure they're doing their best, but such a huge part of why the original has become a cult classic was Brian Mitsoda's script. They had him on board and threw him out. I really wish I knew what was going on behind the scenes. Did he piss someone off? Was the functional parts of the game not... functioning? Or was the script really that bad? They seem to be keeping basically none of it, but the characters in the Chinese Room trailers have none of the charm of Hardsuit Labs trailers...

I think we'll get a mediocre Dishonored-like with a Vampire theme that is Bloodlines only in name, and fans will forever wonder about and mythologize that Hardsuit Labs version with Mitsoda and Rik Schaffer (which may well have sucked in reality).
