The Blood of Dawnwalker gameplay and story details

Developer Rebel Wolves has provided some decent details about the project. For instance, the game is described as a single-player open-world dark fantasy triple-A RPG with a "strong focus on story and narrative". It's also said to be the first chapter in a new role-playing saga.

Set in an alternative 14th Century Europe, players will control a young man called Coen who is transformed into a Dawnwalker, a mix between a human and vampire that is constantly treading the line between day and night.

Over the course of 30 days and nights, Coen must decide whether to save his family or exact revenge upon his sire and destroy anyone else who gets in the way.

Rebel Wolves is co-founded by Konrad Tomaszkiewicz who previously was the director of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. He will once again act as game director on The Blood of Dawnwalker.

"Inspired by classic RPGs, we want players to feel the sense of urgency in an open world game. There are multiple approaches to saving Coen’s family with no clear division between main and side quests, you decide on how you spend the time.", said Tomaszkiewicz upon its announcement.

"Time is a resource and with each quest progressing its passage, it is impossible to complete all stories and arcs before the dreadful deadline, making each playthrough unique. We call it a narrative sandbox."

It's further noted that Coen will have different skills, abilities and story outcomes depending on the time of day.

The main crux of this question is whether it's better to fight for humanity or embrace the cursed powers.
