Based on developer Insurgent Wolves over on X, The Blood of Dawnwalker has already surpassed 1 million copies bought. Take into account, the bloody factor solely got here out on September 3, in order that’s one million copies in simply two days.
Not unhealthy for a corporation based in 2022. That is their first recreation, a model new IP with no main model recognition behind it to assist drive gross sales, however for the reason that second it was introduced The Blood of Dawnwalker has been turning heads. Every new trailer that dropped sparked extra pleasure.
And why not? Insurgent Wolves is made up of plenty of former CD Projekt Crimson workers and carries a healthy dose of The Witcher 3 DNA. I’ve had it on my watchlist for ages, however finally determined to skip it in September as a result of sheer variety of video games launching. However I intend to select it up quickly, or persuade somebody to purchase it for my birthday.
Talking of a busy September, that makes the sport’s gross sales much more spectacular. There are plenty of large video games vying for everybody’s consideration and cash this month, together with the likes of Insomniac’s Wolverine, Management Resonant and extra.
It’s not prefer it’s simply promoting nicely, both. The Blood of Dawnwalker is doing all the things proper. It’s holding an aggregated evaluate rating of 85 on Opencritic, and a “very constructive” score over on Steam from over 4,500 evaluations.
