Rebel Wolves vampire RPG: Coen is human by day and vampire by night, with 30 days to save his family in Vale Sangora.
The Blood of Dawnwalker is a single-player open-world action RPG from Rebel Wolves, the Warsaw studio led by Witcher 3 director Konrad Tomaszkiewicz and published by Bandai Namco Entertainment. You play Coen, a silver-country villager who becomes a Dawnwalker: human under sunlight, vampire after dusk, with thirty in-game days to pull his family out of a coronation sacrifice in Vale Sangora. Time is a budget, not a ticking clock. Exploration is free. Completing a quest, unlocking a skill node, or advancing a story beat spends one or more of the eight segments that split each day and each night. The time system guide explains how hourglasses work; the time planner is the sheet you fill before you accept a job. Day and night are two kits. Daylight opens witchcraft, conversation, and the sword. Night opens claws, Shadowstep, wall-walking, and a hunger that can kill the wrong NPC if you starve Coen. Read day and night before you pick a first quest, then combat and controls so directional parries actually charge your hexes. Three skill trees share one calendar: Witchcraft by day, Swordmastery always, Vampirism after dark. The ability tier list ranks what is worth a segment, and the build planner stops you from buying a night power at noon. The valley is small on purpose. Vale Sangora runs from the farm village Laslea to the silver capital Svartrau and Greifberg Castle, split among Brencis and his officers Ambrus, Bakir, and Xanthe. Meet Coen, the vampire court, and the allies who can walk into the castle with you — Anca, Lacra, and Marat. If you have not installed yet, start with getting started, then how to play, feeding, system requirements, editions, and the release schedule. Critic scores live on the review page. Official storefronts sit on links.

The time system is the real tutorial. Exploration is free; quests, leveling, and story beats spend segments. Open the time planner and mark the coronation before you accept a side job.
Follow getting started through the silver mine and the night Coen becomes a Dawnwalker, then how to play for the sandbox rules that replace a main-quest marker.
Skim the ability tier list, then lock one Witchcraft opener, one Swordmastery staple, and one Vampirism traversal node. The build planner stops you from spending a segment on a tree you cannot use until dusk.
Read Coen, the vampire court, and allies so Anca, Lacra, and Marat are not strangers when the calendar is thin. Keep feeding in mind — a starved bite can delete a quest giver.
