Rebel Wolves’ new RPG, developed by ex-CD Projekt RED devs, reveals 21 minutes of promising gameplay. The Blood of Dawnwalker blends gothic horror, high-stakes decisions, and RPG freedom in a haunting medieval world.

Set in 14th-century Europe, where wars rage and the Black Death consumes the survivors, an opening emerges. Vampires seize the moment to rise from the shadows and claim what was long denied—freedom and power. Creatures of the night follow, and legends become reality. History will never be the same again.

You play as Coen, a man transformed into a Dawnwalker—a being caught between light and dark. Will you fight for your humanity, or embrace the curse to protect your loved ones? Whatever you choose, your soul may be the price for those you love.

Shape the story to your will. Set out to save your family or take revenge on your sire and obliterate all who stand in your way. Explore ancient mysteries in the valley. Charge forward recklessly or prepare with care. Travel solo or forge alliances. Day and night offer distinct gameplay loops with different powers, mysteries, and approaches. The world responds to your choices—so test, adapt, and react.

Every action—and inaction—changes the world around you. Time is running out for your family, and every mission advances the clock. Choose wisely who to help and who to abandon—you won’t save everyone. Evil waits for no one.

Unleash your vampiric power, defy gravity, and become a brutal force of nature—or remain human and fight back with your sword and magic. Your form shifts as day turns to night, each with its own strengths and weaknesses. Adapt to survive and conquer.

Explore a hand-crafted open world filled with danger and discovery: lush forests, vast plains, deadly swamps, towering mountains, and medieval towns. Unearth lost ruins, ancient civilizations, and hidden truths that were meant to stay buried.

The Blood of Dawnwalker marks the beginning of a new RPG saga, crafted with passion for the genre. Its stunning world is powered by Unreal Engine 5, promising a bold new vision of role-playing storytelling.

The Blood of Dawnwalker is set to release in 2026 on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and PC, published by Bandai Namco.
