Former The Witcher 3 and Cyberpunk 2077 developers at Rebel Wolves have unveiled The Blood of Dawnwalker. While not targeting full AAA scale, the team has high ambitions.

Rebel Wolves’ founder, Mateusz Tomaszkiewicz, revealed that the studio aims for The Witcher 3-level quality, just on a smaller scale:

“We want AAA quality, like The Witcher 3—that’s our heritage. But as a small studio on our first project, we’re creating something more compact yet just as polished.”

The game is expected to take 30-40 hours to complete:

“Comparing anything to The Witcher 3, which was meant to last 100+ hours but often exceeded 200-300 hours, is crazy. But is size what makes a game AAA? Call of Duty is AAA without a massive campaign. So, does scale really matter?”

Tomaszkiewicz also dismissed industry labels like “AAA” and “AAAA” as meaningless.

The Blood of Dawnwalker is an action RPG where a half-vampire has 30 days and 30 nights to save his loved ones. The game features a time limit but ensures a smooth experience. Built on Unreal Engine 5, it is coming to PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S, though the release date remains unknown.
