The Blood of Dawnwalker, A Dark Fantasy Narrative Sandbox RPG, Rises in 2026

Bandai Namco and Rebel Wolves have announced The Blood of Dawnwalker, a dark fantasy action RPG coming to PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and PC via Steam and Microsoft Store in 2026.

Set in plague-ravaged 14th-century Europe, the game reimagines history through a supernatural lens. Vampires have emerged from the shadows to claim dominion over a world weakened by war and disease. You play as Coen, a man turned into a rare Dawnwalker—caught between daylight and darkness—fighting for his humanity and the fate of his family.

Players will shape their own story, making impactful choices that alter the world and the relationships within it. Featuring dual gameplay loops that change between day and night, the game offers a dynamic mix of narrative depth, exploration, and combat. Master swordplay, magic, or unleash vampiric powers in an open world built in Unreal Engine 5, where every decision pushes the story forward—and the clock is always ticking.
