Rebel Wolves Teases What Will Be in The Blood of Dawnwalker’s Sequel

This year, Rebel Wolves released its debut project, The Blood of Dawnwalker. The game, made by former developers of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, received a very warm reception from both critics and players, and even had decent sales. What’s more, the developers have already confirmed they’re working on a sequel, and in a recent interview, the studio head teased what the sequel might entail.

Konrad Tomaszkiewicz, the founder of Rebel Wolves and The Blood of Dawnwalker’s game director, spoke to GamesRadar about this during the Golden Joysticks event. He stated the studio has some crazy ideas about what a sequel might look like—and he believes the developers have managed to “lift the curse” on vampire games, since not all of those released in recent years have been successful. You can check out more from Tomaszkiewicz’s interview below:

"Many people told us the vampire genre is cursed somehow. I think that we somehow lifted this curse. We have our own place in the genre also, with the narrative sandbox and hybrid combat and the other things we have, and it's great to have something like this because we already have ideas how to expand it and how to make even more crazy ideas in the game. I'm really happy because, for us, the development was a lot of fun.”

The Blood of Dawnwalker received several nominations at the 2026 Golden Joystick Awards, but it did not win any awards. The game took second place in the “Best Storytelling” and “PC Game of the Year” categories, as well as fifth place in “Ultimate Game of the Year.” Nevertheless, according to Tomasz Tinc, chief publishing officer and co-owner of Rebel Wolves, this is a truly “remarkable experience” for a debut project. As is well known, The Blood of Dawnwalker sold 1 million copies in the first two days after its release, and given that more than two months have passed since its launch, this figure has likely grown significantly.

Speaking of the game's sequel, it was essentially confirmed this summer when we saw a modern setting in one of The Blood of Dawnwalker's trailers. The developers have also stated their desire to expand the saga's story over the course of centuries.

The Blood of Dawnwalker is now available on PC, Xbox Series X/S, and PlayStation 5.
