Various highly influential members of the Camarilla community were expertly destroyed or captured by a group that appear to be highly knowledgeable about their quarry's weaknesses. The plot revolves around the aftermath of the violent circumstances of the reunification of Boston and Hartford domains negotiated by Hazel Iversen, the Prince of Boston and Tremere Chantry of Hartford. Although vampires previously had been occupied with rivalry between factions, they have changed focus to trying to survive, following events like the fall of London as a home to vampires, and so the Boston Camarilla wants to ensure that all vampires in the Northeastern United States are safe. The new Camarilla prince of Boston, Hazel Iversen, is trying to strengthen the Camarilla's presence by bringing Boston and Hartford together. This practice of hiding from humans is called the Masquerade, and is upheld by the vampire sect the Camarilla.
Swansong is set in Boston, in the World of Darkness, where vampires exist unbeknownst to humanity. The three investigate conspiracies in Boston following a shootout, starting with who ordered the attack and why.
The story follows three vampires, each about a hundred years old, from different vampire clans with differing views on the Camarilla's rule: Galeb, an intimidating man of clan Ventrue Emem, a "seductive Amazon" of clan Toreador and Leysha of clan Malkavian, who relies on supernatural insight and spreading madness. Throughout the game, the characters are put in difficult situations where the player has to make moral choices, with no obviously correct choice.
Because the player characters often are surrounded by humans, the player needs to be careful about when and where they choose to use supernatural abilities, to avoid revealing their characters' vampiric nature. The player can customize the characters by choosing to upgrade their disciplines and character statistics to suit their preferred playstyle this influences character interaction and skills used while exploring the game world, such as picking locks and hacking computer terminals.
