Rebel Wolves has announced Update 1.2 for The Blood of Dawnwalker, introducing a New Game+ mode alongside changes to progression, enemy behavior and the game’s map. The update follows Update 1.1 and is aimed at players who have completed the game’s epilogue and want to continue with their existing progress.
The central addition is New Game+. According to the announcement, players will be able to begin the mode after finishing the epilogue. Their levels, skills and inventory items will carry over, while the level cap will increase to Level 100. The mode will also include New Game Plus variations for most items, with new statistics and additional ways to approach progression.
“New features” and “Changes and improvements”
Those phrases were used in the Update 1.2 announcement to describe the patch’s main areas of work. The update also includes more music for the game’s soundtrack. Rebel Wolves said the soundtrack is headed to Spotify and other streaming services “soon,” although the announcement does not provide a specific release date for those services.
Combat and map changes
Update 1.2 will adjust several gameplay systems. Enemy health pools and ability usage are being reworked, which may change how encounters are balanced in both the main game and New Game+. The game map is also being upgraded to provide a smoother overall experience, although the announcement does not list individual locations or give numerical details for these changes.
- New Game+ becomes available after the epilogue.
- Levels, skills and inventory items carry over into the new mode.
- The level cap rises to Level 100, with New Game Plus item variations.
- Enemy health, ability usage and the map are being adjusted.
The Blood of Dawnwalker has sold 1 million copies, according to the report. That milestone provides context for the continued post-launch support, but Update 1.2 is the more immediate change for players: it expands progression after the epilogue while revisiting core balance systems. Rebel Wolves has not provided a specific launch date for Update 1.2 in the announcement covered by Insider Gaming, so players in the Philippines and Southeast Asia will need to rely on the release information provided through the game’s official channels.
The update’s additions are focused on continued play rather than a new story campaign. Players who have reached the epilogue will be able to bring existing progression into another run, while the raised cap and revised item variations provide the main structure for further advancement. The planned soundtrack release is separate from the game update and does not change the availability of the game itself.
