Release Date: TBA
Developer: CCP Games

Monetization: unknown

World of Darkness is an upcoming MMO game set in the dark fantasy world of Vampire: the Masquerade created by White Wolf Publishing. It is expected to be somewhat true to its origins by featuring social interaction, player politics and role-playing, with faction and territories being a big part of the game. It will explore the themes of “Mystery, Romance, Power and Danger” and it will not be particularly combat-intensive unless the player prefers to play it that way. (Source)

CCP Games is the developer of the sandbox MMORPG Eve Online.

According to what was revealed in the 2012 EVE Fanfest, players can play it in three different ways:

Coffeehouse style – players who like the social aspects of the game can play the coffeehouse which is very casual and RP player focused
Theme park – the part that has a lot of PvE, like traditional MMORPG gameplay
Sandbox – this is apparently the biggest and most important part of the game which has a lot of player conflict and politicking, cities will be controlled by “Princes”
