Where to play

The Blood of Dawnwalker is an open-world action RPG from Rebel Wolves, a studio led by Witcher 3 veterans including director Konrad Tomaszkiewicz. Launching September 3 across PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC, the game tasks players with dismantling Lord Brencis' vampire operation through a Vampire Court system that dynamically responds to player choices. The studio has designed the experience around meaningful freedom - the 30-day countdown doesn't lock players out of content, and different playstyles mean you won't see everything your friends encounter.

The game recently went gold, with Rebel Wolves planning a day-one patch despite the physical release. Tomaszkiewicz has expressed confidence that current-generation console development actually suits the studio's timeline better than waiting for next-gen hardware. The PC version notably skips Denuvo DRM, while the full game fits on a single disc. Rebel Wolves has framed this as the foundation of a centuries-spanning saga, though the studio's success with the franchise installment will largely depend on how well the time-hopping sequel plans land.
