The Blood of Dawnwalker: 8 Minutes of Quest Gameplay | IGN First

Wait 5 sec.

Ready your silver blades and holy water because July’s IGN First is The Blood of Dawnwalker. This upcoming RPG from developer Rebel Wolves casts you as Coen, a cursed man who must live as a human by day and a vampire by night. Mastering both sides of his existence is the key to saving his family from a court of evil bloodsuckers. To kick off our month of exclusive content, we bring you brand new gameplay from one of The Blood of Dawnwalker’s prologue quests. In Deep Down, a young Coen - not yet afflicted by the vampirism curse - explores an underground ruin in search of Lazar, a local man who’s gone missing. In the depths of the caves he finds much more than just a lost man. By examining an ancient mural, Coen learns of old heroes and hidden treasure. This eight-minute The Blood of the Dawnwalker gameplay video showcases a few elements, including an investigation system that allows you to discover hidden lore and reveal the existence of special loot. And, of course, there’s swordplay – the video concludes with a swift boss fight against The Forgotten Guardian.
