Rebel Wolves released a gameplay demo for The Blood of Dawnwalker showcasing updates made based on player feedback. The demo highlights changes such as real-time ability selection and new camera options.
Gameplay Features and Updates
The demo showcases different playstyles for human and vampire forms in the quest "A Monk and a Saint." During the day, protagonist Coen acts in human form, investigating an asylum and engaging with residents to unravel mysteries. Actions include bribing a resident and using magic to speak with the dead. At night, Coen assumes vampire abilities, navigating a cathedral stealthily and avoiding powerful enemies.
Key changes showcased include real-time ability selection, which no longer pauses gameplay, demanding quicker decision-making from players. The camera settings have been enhanced, now allowing a second, farther distance option for different scenarios, with adjustments available for both combat and exploration phases.
