Release date for New Blood set!

Who is this white-bearded man visiting in the middle of the night? Is it Santa Claus coming with gifts to Vampire: The Eternal Struggle players that have been nice?! NO, it´s a dangerous Salubri vampire out to kick ass! Paolo Puggioni made this fantastic new artwork for the card Sight Beyond Sight, re-published in the upcoming New Blood Salubri pack.

Note: This card re-introduces the burn option rule to the game, and introduces it to the V5 tournament format. The rule is: Some cards have a burn option icon. This icon means that a Methuselah who does not control a minion who meets the requirements of this card or who is a legal target for it, may discard it during ANY Methuselah’s unlock phase and replace it. Each Methuselah is limited to one such discard each unlock phase.

The official release date of New Blood Ravnos, Salubri and Tzimisce are February 28, 2026. This is also the official legality date for using new cards from these packs in VEKN sanctioned tournaments.

The full content lists are available on the Blackchantry.com product pages, as are all previews so far.

– New Blood: Ravnos

– New Blood: Salubri

– New Blood: Tzimisce

Happy holidays!

Support your local game store!

Hi! Ever since we started Black Chantry Productions, we have aimed to support local game stores, and so should you. Yep, this is important even if you find what you want a bit cheaper somewhere on the interwebs. These stores really help to show that Vampire: The Eternal Struggle exists just by having the game on the shelf, close to you and close to potential new players. Some of them also have tables for you to play at!

This weekend Fantasiapelit in Finland celebrates 40 years. They have sold Vampire: The Eternal Struggle products since the game was first released in 1994, possibly making them the longest-running retailer of the game in the world. We want to thank them for this and wish them many more successful years to come. Happy birthday, Fantasiapelit!

The art above by Mitch Mueller is a preview from the card Black Market Cache. It will appear in the New Blood Ravnos pack, in stores early next year. Check out the product page for the actual card and more previews!
