New 20 Minute Gameplay Demo for Upcoming Open World RPGs Dawnwalker’s Blood It suggests that the developer Rebel Wolves have a magical touch to incorporate the best about The Witcher 3. Just an idea of a new game from a former CD project Red developer who was working on the Witcher series and Cyberpunk 2077, please raise my ears. Luckily, this expanded demonstration of the blood of this Dawnwalker dynamic and reactive quest system is exactly what I wanted to see.
For many things that appreciate the Witcher 3 very highly among the best RPGs, they are supported by its incredible mission lineup. Even the smallest side quests feel worth pursuing your time by changing many perspectives depending on your past actions, and many harmless appearances can suddenly open a fresh entrance into the key parts of the main story. Dawnwalker’s blood appears to take this to another level, completely stripping away the distinction between core and optional targets.
As Dawnwalker himself, the approach to the activities of the protagonist Cohen changes dramatically during the daytime, where he can escape when he walks the streets in human form and when he slides down as a vampire, equally empowered and feared. His main purpose is to save his family, who are imprisoned in the castle before time runs out. Design Director Daniel Sadowski explains, but design director Daniel Sadowski explains by honing his skills, improving gear and gathering alliances before hitting the gate.
Apart from its central purpose, Sadowski states that Dawnwalker’s “there is no difference between the main quest and the side quest.” The opportunity we have shown here is necessary for Cohen to investigate Svaltlau Cathedral, and once he arrives during the day it becomes a simple process. He can walk straight through the door, where he sits and observes the bloody baptism. From there he was drawn into a conversation with Florin, the monk who had held the service.
This approach makes visitors question easily, but leaves a large section of the building out of reach of Cohen. Choosing to have a night stay instead means that the cathedral gates are locked and guarded, but Cohen allows for the use of shadow stepping abilities like teleports, or plane shifts. This makes it easy to walk across walls and ceilings. This gives him access to the upper level, where he points out that the old fresco of the building appears to be covered. It also reveals that the ritual is being performed by Xanthe, an elderly and powerful vampire.
Cohen can see the events coming out of the shadows, but the slightest misstep and Zante’s keen senses will catch him. In the demonstration, this rapidly escalates into the battle. It turns out to be extremely difficult, especially considering the ability to use boiling blood to cast a curse on Cohen. “It’s very possible to defeat her here, but it’s going to be as difficult as hell,” Sadowski calls it a “fun challenge for hardcore players.” But given Xanthe’s status, you’ll probably be better served in the long run by keeping her alive and learning more about her.
Cohen’s vampire skills are powerful (he can also fight with a fierce claw strike at night, but his sword is still an option), but they are naturally at a sacrifice. As a vampire, your health is linked to your hunger, and when dusk falls, you need to feed. It is immediately prone to leave it unconscious temporarily from the selected victim, or even drink it from the animal instead. If you wait too long, you may lose control, drain important characters to a fatal degree, and remove them entirely from the story.
Dawnwalker’s Blood is scheduled to be released in 2026. In the meantime, if you want to keep up with all the details and new releases, beware of the guide as Dawnwalker’s Blood release date will end.
If you can’t wait until then to sink your teeth into something juicy, you’ve got the best vampire game in 2025.
