What Is The Blood of Dawnwalker?
The Blood of Dawnwalker is the debut game from developer Rebel Wolves, which was founded by developers who formerly worked at CD Projekt Red. It’s a single-player, open-world action RPG that sees you playing as Coen, “A young man turned into a Dawnwalker, forever treading the line between the world of day and the realm of night” according to The Blood of Dawnwalker website.
IGN’s Matt Purslow was able to check it out recently – in particular, its prologue – and wrote in his hands-off preview that “It feels like Rebel Wolves has created a prologue that effectively establishes a dark medieval world and lays the initial tracks for Coen’s interesting dual-lane journey in which you must master both the man and the vampire. It’s knowing what comes after all this, though – the depth of its day/night “narrative sandbox” and the multitude of opportunities for both sides of Coen that I was shown previously – that places The Blood of Dawnwalker among the small handful of games that I’m impatiently waiting for this year.”
