Bandai Namco and developer Rebel Wolves have confirmed an exact release date for The Blood of Dawnwalker. The dark fantasy vampire role-playing game will launch on 3rd September 2026, ending a period in which the title had only been given a vague "2026" window.

The announcement fixes a firm date for a project that has been positioned as a mature, story-led RPG with gothic themes. The publisher and developer did not change the project's high-level description in the update, reiterating its focus on vampire-centric narrative and role-playing systems.

The 3rd September release now places The Blood of Dawnwalker alongside Microsoft’s Fable, marking a notable autumn showdown between two high-profile RPGs. The coinciding launch dates are likely to shape coverage, retailer promotions and player attention during the busy fall period.

Further details, including platform confirmations, pre-order information and edition breakdowns, are expected in the run-up to launch. Eurogamer first reported the new date.
