Blood of Dawnwalker Sales Pass 1 Million in Two Days on PS5, Xbox and PC

The Blood of Dawnwalker has sold more than a million copies, and it took roughly two days to get there. Rebel Wolves and publisher Bandai Namco confirmed the milestone on 5 September, with the game live on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and PC through Steam and GOG since 3 September.

That is a debut game from a studio nobody had shipped anything with before. Rebel Wolves was founded by Konrad Tomaszkiewicz, who directed The Witcher 3, and the team has spent four years on a single-player dark-fantasy RPG at full price in a year when the industry has been shedding staff.

What the Blood of Dawnwalker sales figure actually counts

The number the studio gave is one million copies sold worldwide, across every platform combined. It is a sell-through figure covering PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Steam and GOG together, not a shipped-to-retail number and not a player count.

Two things it does not tell you. It does not break out how many of those sales were on console versus PC, and the studio has not published a split. It also does not include anyone playing on a shared account or a family plan, so the number of people who have actually loaded the game is higher than a million.

Third-party sales trackers have published PC estimates in the low hundreds of thousands, which would put consoles well ahead. Those are estimates from outside firms, not figures from Bandai Namco, and the publisher has confirmed nothing about the platform split.

Which platforms it is on, and what it costs

The launch line-up has not changed since release day, and there are no new versions attached to the milestone:

• PlayStation 5 — $69.99 for the Standard Edition. No PS4 version.
• Xbox Series X|S — $69.99. No Xbox One version.
• PC — on Steam and GOG, $69.99. Steam's listing asks for 60GB of free SSD space.
• Nintendo Switch 2 — not announced, and Rebel Wolves has not hinted at one.

Above the Standard Edition sit the Day One, Eclipse and Collector's editions. Those add physical goods and cosmetic extras rather than early access — every edition unlocked at the same moment, which we covered in our breakdown of the Blood of Dawnwalker release times by platform.

Is it on Game Pass or PS Plus?

No. It is a paid purchase on all three platforms, and neither Microsoft nor Sony listed it as a day-one subscription title. It was not in the September Game Pass wave, and it is not among the PS Plus monthly games for September either.

Third-party RPGs sometimes land on a subscription service six to twelve months after launch, but nothing has been announced here. Treat any claim of a Game Pass date as unconfirmed until Bandai Namco says so.

Why a two-day million matters right now

Single-player RPGs with no live-service hook, no season pass and no multiplayer mode have spent the last two years being described as a commercial risk. A first-time studio clearing a million in a weekend is a data point against that, and it lands in the same week that Rebel Wolves' peers have been announcing layoffs and funding shortfalls.

It also arrives in a busy stretch on PlayStation. Bandai Namco's game is competing directly with the titles that dominated August's PlayStation Store download charts, and the September calendar only gets heavier from here.

What has not been said

Rebel Wolves has not announced DLC, an expansion, a New Game Plus mode or a patch roadmap alongside the sales figure. There is no word on a performance patch for either console, and no second milestone target has been given. Everything beyond the one-million number is speculation at this point.
