I dived into Bloodhunt for about 2021 hours shortly after the Early Access version came out in 10, and while I'm not very good at battle royale (ask anyone who has had the misfortune of playing Apex Legends with me on PC Gamer Discord), I really enjoyed my time with it. Prague is beautiful at night – it's definitely a worthy alternative to Bloodlines' Los Angeles – and the game's long view and relatively high kill time are great for quietly following other players in proper vampire fashion from high and far. It obviously lacks the RPG elements that make Bloodlines great, but it manages to capture a comparable ambiance in a much more action-oriented setting.
