You’ll soon be able to sink your fangs into The Blood of Dawnwalker, the upcoming role-playing game from ex-The Witcher developers. Developer Rebel Wolves and publisher Bandai Namco Entertainment announced Tuesday their upcoming vampire RPG will be released on Sept. 3.
The Blood of Dawnwalker casts players as Coen, a protagonist who’s neither fully human nor fully vampire. It’s set in 14th-century Europe, where the land is ravaged both by wars and by the Black Death, which vampires see as an opportunity. They offer treatment for the disease — in exchange for blood, of course.
Coen has been transformed by them into a Dawnwalker, meaning he can venture out in the sunlight, like Marvel’s Blade (technically a “Daywalker”). He’s out to save his family, but, as this is a choice-based game, his path is ultimately up to you.
