  "account": "Bandai Namco and Rebel Wolves announced that their new single-player RPG, The Blood of Dawnwalker, has sold 1 million copies just two days after launch. The game, an open-world dark fantasy action RPG, was released for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S on September 3. Rebel Wolves' founder and director, Konrad Tomaszkiewicz, expressed gratitude to fans for their support and playthrough. The developers highlighted that this achievement is particularly impressive given that it's the studio's first major release since its founding in 2022 and that The Blood of Dawnwalker is a new IP. The game's narrative follows Coen, a human by day and vampire by night, who fights for his family in a player-choice-driven story. Bandai Namco described the game as a \"bloody cocktail of interesting ideas and well-written characters\" in their 9/10 review. Future installments of the Dawnwalker franchise, each set in a standalone story, are also planned by the developers.",
