After only a week of release, the creative team behind new vampire RPG The Blood of Dawnwalker have revealed they’re already thinking about the series’ next steps.
As per InsiderGaming, developer Rebel Wolves’ Narrative Director Jakub Szamałek shared on LinkedIn that the studio is already beginning the pre-production phase of a new entry in the Dawnwalker saga, believed to be a direct sequel. The team is hiring a Lead Writer to work alongside Szamałek and help craft the new story, along with other assumed openings as the studio aims to capitalize on its huge success.
The news comes only days after The Blood of Dawnwalker launched on September 3 on PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S. Within that short time, the game has already surpassed 1 million copies sold and racked up a litany of glowing reviews which praised its sprawling open-world, timed quest mechanics and high-quality graphics.

Rebel Wolves is made up of former CD Projekt Red veterans, best known for their Witcher and Cyberpunk 2077 series, and the team includes the co-creators of The Witcher 3, which explains why some gameplay elements may feel so similar to that 2015 classic title.
It seems the team are looking to launch a new RPG franchise to directly compete with The Witcher, whose fourth entry is currently in the midst of being built at CD Projekt Red studios in Poland. First, the team will release a huge new expansion for The Witcher 3, as well as a remastered edition of that title onto modern platforms.
Owing to the runaway success of The Blood of Dawnwalker, it’s no surprise that Rebel Wolves have already begun laying the groundwork for a new adventure featuring cursed protagonist Coen. The game has received glowing feedback for a variety of innovations that have set it apart from competitors in the crowded RPG market.
Set in the 14th century gothic valley of Vale Sangora during the Black Death, the game directly draws its influences from Romanian folklore and the haunting Carpathian Mountains. Main character Coen is a Dawnwalker after a failed turning—human by day, vampire by night.
