The vampire myth has enjoyed an enduring presence in various media, spawning numerous interpretations and reimagined takes over the years. The Blood of Dawnwalker, the ambitious debut from Rebel Wolves, looks to pump new blood into the veins of tradition by subverting familiar tropes and challenging genre expectations, starting with its protagonist, Coen, human by day and bloodsucker by night.
This dual-nature design sets the stage for a marriage of opposing ideals – two distinct combat styles, a day-night cycle, and the consequences of both action and inaction – as he embarks on a quest to save his family from the ancient vampire overlord, Brencis, over 30 days and 30 nights. Kicking off the long road ahead is the Blood of Dawnwalker Collector’s Edition, which includes a PureArts Coen figurine and the following:
- Base game
- Steelbook case
- World map (33 x 40cm)
- Pre-order armour set (Sangoran Wayfarer’s Armor)
- 60-page physical World Compendium
- Gold-laminated sticker set
- Reusable retail bag (Asia-exclusive)
- Eclipse Edition content
- Digital World Compendium
- Digital comic book
- Digital soundtrack
Crafted with meticulous detail, the 23cm centrepiece recreates Coen’s most distinctive features, from the runes carved on his arm and the small scar on his left eyebrow to the clawed hand. The world map, meanwhile, offers a good look at Vale Sangora, where the dark fantasy role-playing game (RPG) is set, with medieval-styled artwork adorning the Steelbook case and packaging.
