The Blood of Dawnwalker has suddenly become one of the most anticipated upcoming RPGs for many gamers. The entry—being developed by the former Witcher 3 director—is set in medieval Europe with dark fantasy infused with sandbox elements.
Therefore, fans are excitedly looking forward to more news and tidbits from the new studio, Rebel Wolves.
Now, the Blood of Dawnwalker director has revealed that the team broke off from CDPR exactly to create a title willing to take risks and evolve the genre altogether.
Why it matters: The developers involved with The Blood of Dawnwalker wanted to experiment with crazy ideas that CDPR might not have accepted. So, the Witcher 3 director created Rebel Wolves to develop a unique RPG project.
In an interview with PC Gamer, Witcher 3 director Konrad Tomaszkiewicz explains that he left CDPR to pursue unorthodox and ‘crazy ideas’ that it might have been hesitant about.
I feel that those things, those rules of RPG games, can be expanded and evolved.

Taking huge risks that might not work in the end made it essential for the developer team to create its branding. Additionally, Tomaszkiewicz believes that working alongside a small team is much better because of easier communication.
it would be hard to convince any big company—you know, with non-IP—to change, and do something new, and do something crazy.

The Blood of Dawnwalker uses unique elements like making time a resource that needs to be managed wisely to complete quests. The main quest spans 30 in-game days and nights.
For those not in the know, the RPG is being developed using Unreal Engine 5 and will be launched on PC and consoles.
