Ex-Witcher 3 Director Unveils New Dark Fantasy Game: The Blood of Dawnwalker
Rebel Wolves — the development studio headed by acclaimed game director Konrad Tomaszkiewicz, known for his work as lead quest designer on The Witcher 3 and co-director of Cyberpunk 2077 — has officially announced that its upcoming dark fantasy action RPG, The Blood of Dawnwalker, is set to launch in 2026.
During the recent Xbox Games Showcase, Rebel Wolves unveiled exclusive pre-beta gameplay footage showcasing Coen, a young man transformed into a Dawnwalker — human by day, vampire by night — as he struggles to control his newfound powers. The footage offered an early glimpse into the game’s immersive world, intense combat mechanics, and gripping narrative.
But that's not all. On June 21 — the longest day of the year — Rebel Wolves will host a special Gameplay Reveal Event. During this 45-minute livestreamed experience, fans can expect approximately 15 minutes of brand-new gameplay footage, complemented by in-depth developer commentary. The event promises to shine a spotlight on several core gameplay systems, including the game’s dynamic directional combat system that seamlessly integrates swordplay, magic, and vampiric abilities.Additionally, viewers will gain insight into how players traverse the hauntingly beautiful world of Vale Sangora, exploring key locations and uncovering how the shifting balance between day and night dramatically influences both gameplay and story progression.
“It’s been incredibly rewarding to finally share more about the game,” said Tomaszkiewicz. “We’re deeply grateful for the ongoing support from our community. Back in January, we promised to reveal deeper gameplay details this summer — and now, that time has come.”
“We invite everyone to join us on June 21 for our Gameplay Reveal Event. You’ll discover more about the evolving powers Coen gains as the Dawnwalker — a mysterious entity straddling the boundary between light and shadow.”
In The Blood of Dawnwalker, players assume the role of Coen, a being caught between two worlds: no longer fully human, yet not entirely a vampire. With only 30 days and nights to either rescue his family or unleash vengeance upon his sire, players must make difficult choices that shape the fate of Coen and those around him. As the thirst for blood grows stronger, one critical question remains: is saving the ones you love worth losing your own humanity?
