Paradox has announced it is writing down SEK 355 (around $37 million) of development costs for Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2, after early sales figures fell short of expectations following mixed reviews. The company said it would still deliver the two planned expansions to the game.

It’s always tough to see a company face challenges like this. The gaming industry can be unpredictable, and I hope Paradox finds a way to bounce back and deliver something great in the future.
