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 narrative sequence, showcasing this dark fantasy action RPG.

Set in a 14th-century alternate Europe, The Blood of Dawnwalker follows Coen, a young man who acquires supernatural powers 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 throughout gameplay, careful time management is crucial.

Coen faces a profound moral conflict: embrace his humanity or yield to his vampiric nature. This choice significantly impacts both gameplay mechanics and the narrative's trajectory. A core mechanic, "Blood Hunger," forces players to manage Coen's blood intake, as prolonged abstinence risks uncontrolled actions with potentially devastating consequences.

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

Developed over two years 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.
