Summary

As a seasoned gamer with a deep appreciation for immersive and engaging RPGs, I am beyond excited about the upcoming reveal of The Blood of Dawnwalker! Having spent countless hours delving into the rich narratives of games like The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, I can’t help but feel a thrill knowing that the minds behind those masterpieces are back at it again. With Rebel Wolves being led by Konrad Tomaszkiewicz, a CD Projekt Red veteran, and boasting an impressive roster of Witcher veterans, my expectations for this dark fantasy action RPG are sky-high!

On January 13th, we’ll unveil a highly anticipated role-playing game titled “The Dawnwalker’s Blood“. This upcoming RPG is being developed by Rebel Wolves, with Bandai Namco taking care of its publication.

Rebel Wolves is a studio established in 2022, spearheaded by Konrad Tomaszkiewicz, a seasoned professional from CD Projekt Red who oversaw the creation of “The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt” and contributed to earlier installments in the popular franchise. He also led production on “Cyberpunk 2077,” among other ventures. Accompanying him at this new venture are several other experts from “The Witcher” series, such as Bartlomiej Gawel (art director), Tamara Zawada (animation director), and Jakub Szamalek (narrative director). The company’s debut project, titled “Dawnwalker,” was officially unveiled in January 2024.

11 months after the initial announcement, Bandai Namco has unveiled a short promotional video revealing the complete title of the game: The Blood of Dawnwalker. This teaser concludes with the announcement that more details about the project will be disclosed during a live-streamed event on January 13, 2025, at 1pm PT / 4pm ET / 10pm CET. With The Blood of Dawnwalker set to debut in early 2025, Bandai Namco is poised to begin the new year with a significant release, adding it to their growing roster of games scheduled for unveiling or launch next year.

On January 13, enthusiasts can anticipate the unveiling of “The Blood of Dawnwalker”, a dark fantasy action RPG from ex-developers of “The Witcher 3”. This game is being crafted for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC using Unreal Engine 5. Rebel Wolves, the developers, have emphasized that the game will prioritize story and narrative, similar to CDPR’s projects. Initially announced as a “narrative sandbox”, the game is yet to disclose specific details about this aspect. Moreover, it has been confirmed that the game will boast a triple-A budget. The official Twitch channel of “The Blood of Dawnwalker” will live-stream its January 2025 reveal event.

Consequently, it appears that the release of The Blood of Dawnwalker may be delayed until early 2027.
