As Alice0 wrote back in 2022, when Rebel Wolvesannounced their existence, there is a lot of big rhetoric on the developers’ website about how they plan to “revolutionise” the RPG genre. As regards Dawnwalker, that means narratives that will “make you second guess your instincts”, “meaty, dynamic gameplay systems” and “as much freedom as possible”, with “no right or wrong way to play the game”.
“Throughout all my years in game development, story-driven role-playing adventures have always been something I was most passionate about,” Tomaszkiewicz said in a press release. “For me, nothing beats fully immersing myself and discovering handcrafted stories and worlds.”
Dishonored developers Arkane are currently working ona Blade gameset innear-future Paris, so assuming itisa vampire game, Dawnwalker has some direct competition already. There’s alsoVampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2, which isnow in the hands of Dear Esther devs The Chinese Room.
Dawnwalker is in the “alpha stage of development”, with more details slated to arrive later this year. Trucking around social media, I notice that Rebel Wolves character artist Eduardo Porceli has recentlyInstagrammedsome very pretty images of fantasy creatures. I wonder if those are from the game?
