In a new take, here’s how we might rephrase that sentence: The long-awaited gameplay details for Rebel Wolves’ “The Blood of Dawnwalker” have been unveiled, featuring combat mechanics. If you’re familiar with Kingdom Come: Deliverance, the attack system may seem quite similar, as you choose from four possible directions to strike your opponent, aiming to find a spot where they can’t effectively block.
In a similar fashion, Coen responds when under attack by foes. Just as you can engage in combat with a sword during daylight hours, he prefers using his claws for defense. Interestingly, he can also blend sword skills with claw attacks. As you inflict damage on your adversaries, you earn activation charges which can then be utilized to cast spells such as Burning Blood that inflicts continuous physical damage, or the Artery Attack to decapitate enemies.
In this game, there are three skill sets – Human, Vampire, and a shared one. The abilities you can activate during combat determine the skills you can unlock in each category. It’s true that Coen, our character, can perform some typical vampire actions like feeding on enemies and using claws. However, he possesses additional unique abilities as well. For instance, he can use Shadowstep to leap to any nearby location, Focus Mode to spot important items, and Planeshift to traverse walls and ceilings.
As Coen roams the cathedral after dark, he unexpectedly meets Xanthe, the eldest vampire who aids the game’s chief antagonist. He’ll need to deal with Blood Guards, who amplify their powers by consuming vampire blood, and ultimately face Xanthe herself, who wields control over others’ blood. It’s crucial to stay vigilant against Boiling Blood, as it possesses the lethal ability to instantly take down Coen.
In the game “The Blood of Dawnwalker,” Xanthe proves to be a formidable adversary, yet she’s also a character with her own backstory and motivations that are explored in a dedicated questline. This gives players the opportunity to potentially persuade her. Each quest presents several options and decisions that need to be made quickly. The game will be released in 2026 for Xbox Series X/S, PS5, and PC, so keep an eye out for further announcements.
