Rebel Wolves Announces “The Blood of Dawnwalker”, A Narrative Sandbox RPG

Rebel Wolves, a studio co-founded by Konrad Tomaszkiewicz (director of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt), has announced its debut title: “The Blood of Dawnwalker”, an action RPG set in a dark fantasy version of 14th century Europe. The game will be released for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam.

A World Overrun by Vampires

“The Blood of Dawnwalker” takes place in an alternate history where vampires have seized power after the devastation wrought by the Black Death. Players assume the role of Coen, a young man transformed into a Dawnwalker – a being caught between humanity and vampirism. With 30 days remaining before his transformation becomes permanent, Coen must race against time to save his family from the clutches of the vampire lord Brencis.

Narrative Sandbox Gameplay

Inspired by classic RPGs, “The Blood of Dawnwalker” features a unique narrative sandbox system. Players have freedom in how they approach quests and storylines, with no strict division between main and side objectives. The passage of time is a crucial element, forcing players to make difficult choices as they prioritize their actions within the 30-day deadline.

“We want players to feel the sense of urgency,” explains Tomaszkiewicz. “Every playthrough will be unique, depending on the player’s decisions and how they utilize the limited time available.”

Day/Night Cycle and Moral Dilemmas

Coen’s abilities and story outcomes change based on whether it is day or night. This mechanic reflects the internal struggle of his dual nature, forcing players to grapple with moral dilemmas as they choose whether to embrace their humanity or succumb to the power of the vampire within.

Upcoming Reveals

Rebel Wolves has released an opening cinematic that sets the stage for the game’s story and a brief in-engine gameplay teaser. More information, including a full gameplay reveal, is expected this summer.
