PC performance woes couldn’t keep Rebel Wolves’ The Blood of Dawnwalker down, as the open-world action RPG has already sold one million copies. Before launch, it had crossed two million wishlists across all platforms and was reportedly among the top wishlisted titles this year.
In terms of concurrent player count on Steam, it crossed a respectable 78,000, which isn’t too far off from The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt – Complete Edition (which many from the studio previously worked on). When compared with publisher Bandai Namco’s biggest releases, it pales in comparison to the Elden Rings and Dark Souls. However, it still managed seventh place – not bad considering the competition.
The Blood of Dawnwalker is available for Xbox Series X/S, PS5, and PC. While fans have praised the title, it’s received strong critical praise, averaging an 83 Metascore based on 63 reviews. Which was very good news for director Konrad Tomaszkiewicz and the studio.
Check out our review here for more details. As for what’s next, Rebel Wolves has spoken about turning Dawnwalker into a franchise, and it’s certainly teased as much (besides letting save data from the current game carry over). Nothing is official yet, so stay tuned, but in the meantime, you can likely expect free post-launch DLC in the coming months.
