Pretty stoked to see what kind of immersive experience Dawnwalker will offer, especially with Unreal Engine 5 under the hood—the Witcher crew definitely knows how to spin a compelling yarn. Here's to hoping for a rich, dark fantasy epic that hits that sweet spot of narrative and visual oomph

It's always cool to see devs who've had a hand in epic titles like The Witcher series work on a fresh IP; with Unreal Engine 5 under the hood of Dawnwalker, we're definitely in for some eye candy and a rich, immersive dark fantasy world. Given Rebel Wolves' dream team of industry vets, my hype levels are over 9000, and I'm stoked to see how they'll use their RPG chops to shape Dawnwalker's identity. 🐺✨
