Dawnwalker Unveiled: Ex-CD Projekt Devs Unleash New RPG

Rebel Wolves, a studio established by former CD Projekt RED developers, recently unveiled their debut title, The Blood of Dawnwalker, in a captivating livestream. The stream featured a four-minute cinematic trailer, serving as the game's opening cinematic and setting the stage for a dark fantasy action RPG experience.

Set in a 14th-century alternate Europe, The Blood of Dawnwalker follows Coen, a young man who acquires supernatural abilities after the events depicted in the trailer. His mission: rescue his loved ones from a vampire threat within a strict 30-day timeframe. While time progresses strategically during gameplay, careful time management is crucial.

Coen's journey presents difficult moral choices: embrace his humanity or succumb to his vampiric nature. This pivotal decision significantly impacts both gameplay mechanics and narrative progression. A key mechanic, Blood Hunger, forces players to strategically feed Coen, lest he lose control and unintentionally harm key characters, triggering unforeseen consequences.

Players will explore richly detailed environments, with dynamic elements influenced by the time of day. The developers describe the game world as a "narrative sandbox," offering substantial freedom and opportunities for player agency.

Currently two years in development using Unreal Engine 5, The Blood of Dawnwalker is slated for release on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S. A specific release date remains unannounced.
