The First Chapter

The Blood of Dawnwalker is the first chapter in the original dark fantasy saga from Rebel Wolves. It’s set in fourteenth-century Europe, which is engulfed in chaos as the bloody wars tear the continent apart while the Black Death claims a deadly toll. It is in this moment of weakness that a clique of powerful vampires is making a move.

Players take on the role of Coen, a young man who has become a Dawnwalker. He is a being that’s no longer fully human but also not entirely a vampire. He has 30 days and nights to save his family or exact bloody revenge on his sire.

The Blood of Dawnwalker is being developed on Unreal Engine 5 and published by Bandai Namco Entertainment. The game is set to be available on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S. For the PC, players can wishlist the game on Steam.
