I think it's to engage the audience because the line doesn't mention bloodshed or parents and obviously doesn't build suspense since it gives away the outcome.

The most likely reason that the prologue reveals the above detail about the play is:

to engage the audience in the tragic story

The prologue of the play “Romeo and Juliet” tells the audience about the place where the play will revolve on. The feud between the Montagues and the Capulets is also been introduced to the audience. The love between the two who belong to these families is also told in the prologue. It is also being told to the audience that if ever the two families would unite together, their unity will be the result of the death of the lovers.
