- Blood of Dawnwalker, a new RPG developed by ex-CDPR devs, gets a new trailer at the Xbox Games Showcase.
- Tiny bits of gameplay show the protagonist dashing, running on walls, and fighting monsters in his vampiric mode.
- The game is set to launch in 2026, with a proper gameplay reveal scheduled for 21 June.
Xbox Games Showcase has kicked off strong with big AAA unveils. Among these, Rebel Wolves, a studio formed by ex-CDPR devs, also made an appearance.
Their ambitious project, The Blood of Dawnwalker, just received a brand-new gameplay trailer with a release date of 2026.
Why It Matters: The Blood of Dawnwalker is among the most patiently awaited RPG releases. Being developed by ex-Witcher 3 devs, one can expect top-notch quality from this release.
The brand-new trailer, dubbed “Trapped Between Two Worlds,” is a direct nod to the protagonist, Cohen, who is neither a vampire nor a human, but must survive the Black Death plague and the vampires aiming to overthrow humanity.
This trailer also showcased tidbits of gameplay where the main character can be seen utilising his vampiric powers at night. So far, the night time powers are shown to be dashing at high-speed, running on the walls upside, or using his claws to fight enemies.
During the day, however, Cohen will have to rely on his sword skills to fight both human and supernatural enemies since his powers are unusable.
The game is said to last around 30 days, featuring cycles of day and night to save your family. Each setting offers a unique playstyle and freedom, as mentioned above.
Surprisingly, Blood of Dawnwalker has only been in development for around 2 years on the Unreal Engine 5 and is set for a 2026 release. With this much gameplay detail and innovation, it’s surprising how much Rebel Wolves were able to achieve with the game.
A proper gameplay reveal for Blood of Dawnwalker is expected on 21 June.
