The Blood of Dawnwalker Is Getting New Game+ in Update 1.2

Rebel Wolves has shared what’s coming to The Blood of Dawnwalker in update 1.2. The headline feature is a New Game+ mode, and the game is also getting an extended soundtrack, balance changes, and smoother movement.

Once you’ve finished the Epilogue, you can start a new playthrough in Vale Sangora and keep your progress. Here’s what changes in New Game+:

• Your level, skills, and inventory carry over to the new playthrough.
• The level cap rises to 100.
• Enemies are balanced and scaled uniformly across all regions.
• Items get NG+ versions with improved stats.

Game director Konrad Tomaszkiewicz first confirmed New Game+ back in September during a PlayStation Polska stream. He promised the mode “will be done” but didn’t say when.

Besides the new mode, update 1.2 extends the in-game soundtrack available to Eclipse Edition owners with more songs from the game. The developers also promised the soundtrack will come to Spotify and other streaming services soon.

Other changes include:

• Balance: The developers adjusted enemy health pools and how often enemies use their abilities in combat.
• Terrain geometry improvements: Movement during combat and exploration will feel smoother.

Rebel Wolves hasn’t announced a release date for update 1.2 yet.

The previous big patch arrived on October 22. Update 1.1 brought more than 1,100 improvements and fixes, including fixes for crashes and infinite loading screens. It also added a new Story difficulty below the renamed Forgiving mode, plus the Draught of Mind Rebirth, a potion that lets you reset your Swordmastery, Witchcraft, and Vampirism abilities and build Coen a different way. The developers also reworked targeting and lock-on in combat, updated frame generation, and let players pet dogs and cats across Vale Sangora.

The Blood of Dawnwalker is an open-world action RPG from Polish studio Rebel Wolves, founded by veterans of The Witcher 3, including Konrad Tomaszkiewicz, the director of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. Bandai Namco published the game, which came out on September 3, 2026, on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S.

You play as Coen, a young man who, because of a vampire curse, lives as a human by day and gains vampire powers at night. The game received strong reviews and has already sold more than 1 million copies.
