Here’s a preview of the game, via Bandai Namco:
14th century Europe. Bloody conflicts sweep the lands and the Black Death falls on the survivors. Following disasters that have claimed thousands of lives, the decimated human population is struggling to survive. It’s a moment of weakness. In Vale Sangora, somewhere in a forgotten corner of the Carpathians, the vampires seize their opportunity to emerge from the shadows, overthrow the feudal lords and reclaim what has been denied them for centuries: the freedom and ultimate power that accompanies him. Legends come true and history as we know it will never be the same.
The Blood of Dawnwalker is the first chapter of the original Rebel Wolves dark fantasy saga. You play as Coen, a young man transformed into a Dawnwalker, always walking on the border between the world of day and that of night. Neither fully human nor fully vampire, you have 30 days and nights to save your family or swear revenge on your father and destroy all those who stand in your way.
The freedom of play is reflected in Coen’s very nature as Dawnwalker. Depending on the time of day, players will have different skills, abilities, and scenario outcomes. Players must choose: do they fight for humanity or embrace the cursed powers?
“Inspired by classic RPGs, we want players to feel the sense of urgency in an open-world game. There are several approaches to saving the Coen’s family, with no clear division between main and side quests, you decide how you spend the time,” said game director Konrad Tomaszkiewicz. “Time is a resource and as each quest progresses, it is impossible to complete all stories and arcs before the dreaded deadline, making each playthrough unique. We call this a narrative sandbox.
