Dawnwalker: Bandai Namco Joins Rebel Wolves in the Dark RPG of Ex-CD Projekt

BANDAI NAMCO Entertainment Europe  has just closed a heavyweight partnership with the studio Rebel Wolves, formed by former developers of iconic titles like The Witcher 3 and Cyberpunk 2077. This collaboration will result in the release of Dawnwalker, an ambitious action RPG set in a dark fantasy world, developed on the powerful Unreal Engine 5. Aimed at adult audiences, the game promises to take players to a medieval world full of rich narrative and intense combat, coming to PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series S|X.

The publishing leader of Rebel Wolves, Tomasz Tinc, expressed enthusiasm for the partnership: 

"Bandai Namco is recognized for its commitment to narrative RPGs, and this partnership with Rebel Wolves is a perfect match. We are excited to bring the first chapter of the Dawnwalker saga to players around the world."

Dawnwalker marks a new chapter for the RPG industry, with a talented team behind it, including veterans who shaped games like The Witcher 3. This new IP is a mix of action and narrative in a vast sandbox, promising complex choices and a world that reacts to the player's actions.

Bandai Namco also sees this collaboration as strategic to expand its portfolio in the Western market. Alberto Gonzalez, from Bandai Namco Entertainment Europe, commented: 

"We are excited about the universe created by Rebel Wolves, which will become a great addition to our global RPG catalog."

With this partnership, Dawnwalker is already positioned as one of the great promises in the fantasy RPG scene, and more details will be revealed in the coming months.
