Back in October, Bandai Namco and new studio Rebel Wolves agreed a publishing deal for Rebel Wolves new RPG, at the time named Dawnwalker.
Rebel Wolves was founded in 2022 by the game director of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, Konrad Tomaszkiewicz. He has been joined by other CD Projekt RED alumni, including Chief Publishing Officer Tomasz Tinc, and Narrative Director Jakub Szamałek.
Today, the first cinematic and gameplay teaser for The Blood of Dawnwalker has been released.The Blood of Dawnwalker is set in Europe during the 14th century, with the Black Plague wiping out people at a high rate.
One of the people affected is Lunka, the sister of main character Coen. In the trailer, you can see him fleeing a patrol to stop them from killing his sister and ending up in a ruined church.
Cornered, Coen is saved by an unlikely source. That is a vampire and his allies. The vampire saves Lunka’s life, but has his own motivations to take advantage of humanity’s time of weakness to grab power and gain freedom, along with other creatures of the night.While the cinematic ends on a bit of a cliffhanger, the trailer shows some gameplay with Coen wielding dark powers.
