The debut title from Rebel Wolves, the Polish studio comprised of former developers behind The Witcher series, will be published by Bandai Namco Entertainment.
Based in Warsaw, Rebel Wolves is currently working on the first entry in something called the Dawnwalker Saga, which is a narrative-focussed fantasy-RPG that takes place in medieval Europe. The team has revealed that it is being developed on Unreal Engine 5, and is aimed at mature audiences.
Tomasz Tinc, Chief Publishing Officer for Rebel Wolves, commented:
Bandai Namco Entertainment Europe, a company known for its dedication to the role-playing genre and willingness to engage with new IPs, is a perfect match for our wolfpack. Not only does it share our values, but also its track record in publishing narrative-driven RPGs speaks for itself.

This is another key milestone in our content development strategy for the Western market. By combining our strengths, we will deliver this first game of the studio to a worldwide audience. We’re excited with the universe being created by Rebel Wolves thanks to their extremely talented team of developers, resulting in a great addition to our portfolio.
Rebel Wolves was formed February 2022, and was established by Konrad Tomaszkiewicz, the game director behind The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, and revealed the team’s goal is “doing things differently while also putting the team first at all times.”
The Dawnwalker project is slated for release on PS5, PC, and Xbox Series X/S.
