Rebel Wolves is giving The Blood of Dawnwalker another reason to sink its teeth into your free time. Update 1.2 is planned for next week and its headline addition is New Game Plus, letting you return to Vale Sangora with the character you’ve already spent hours building.
The developer announced the plans on 13 November, putting the intended release in the week beginning Monday 16 November. There’s no confirmed day or launch time yet, so treat that as the current window rather than a date to book off work.
New Game Plus becomes available once you’ve completed the epilogue. Your level, skills and inventory carry over, while the level cap rises to 100. Enemies will be balanced and scaled uniformly across the regions, and items will receive New Game Plus versions with updated stats. Keeping your equipment should therefore save some rebuilding, without turning the return trip into a sightseeing holiday.
The patch also has changes for the wider game. Rebel Wolves is adjusting enemy health pools and how frequently enemies use their abilities in combat, alongside terrain geometry improvements intended to make movement smoother during fights and exploration. The announcement doesn’t give individual enemy values, so we’ll have to wait for fuller notes before declaring any particular nuisance dealt with.
Music gets some attention too, although this part comes with an edition distinction. The in-game soundtrack available through the Eclipse Edition will be expanded with additional songs, with Spotify and other streaming services to follow. Those streaming releases are described as coming soon rather than being tied to a specific date.
As spotted by Push Square, the update’s appeal is fairly straightforward: another run with your progress intact and more room to develop your build. You can read the details in Rebel Wolves’ official announcement, while the Steam page has the game’s broader details.
