Vampire Bloodhunt is a fast-paced battle royale game in which you have the option to play as different Vampires. As one would expect, every Vampire has different skills and abilities that give them advantages (and disadvantages) on the battlefield.
Similar to how heroes function in Apex Legends, these Vampires or Archetypes in Vampire Bloodhunt allow players to experiment with different characters and their varied gameplay styles.
In Season 1 of Vampire Bloodhunt, players will have access to seven Archetypes, with more set to arrive in the future. With that said, here are all the seven Archetypes in Vampire Bloodhunt, along with their abilities.
Archetype abilities explained in Vampire Bloodhunt
In Vampire Bloodhunt, every Archetype has a Clan ability, a Passive ability, and an Archetype ability. Clan ability remains the same among Archetypes of a Clan, but everything else is unique for every Archetype in Vampire Bloodhunt.
