Developer Rebel Wolves has revealed more details about its upcoming action RPG The Blood of Dawnwalker. During Future Games Show at Gamescom 2025, developers from the studio gave us a look at the action gameplay of the upcoming title, while also talking about the kinds of powers that protagonist Coen will have access to. Check it out below.

Among the abilities showcased in the video is Planeshift, which allows the player to warp around the game’s world and climb up the sides of buildings or even cliffs. We also got to see quite a bit of the melee combat of the upcoming title, which will seemingly incorporate fast-pace with heavy-hitting attacks, prompting players to approach each fight with care.

The video features game director Konrad Tomszkiewicz and lead quest designer Rafal Jankowski talking about how the studio went about designing The Blood of Dawnwalker, from making Coen a vampire that is also cursed with human vulnerabilities during the day, to how the world is designed.

The Blood of Dawnwalker is slated for release on PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X/S in 2026.
