"Witcher 4 Creators Support Blood of Dawnwalker Authors, No Competition with Rebel Wolves"

Gamers have been buzzing about The Blood of Dawnwalker, drawing inevitable comparisons to The Witcher 4. This excitement stems from the fact that The Blood of Dawnwalker was crafted by former CD Projekt Red (CDPR) staff, whose influence is evident in the game's ambiance and style.

Following the release of the first trailer, the gaming community has been actively debating which game might outshine the other. However, both the developers and their former colleagues at CDPR believe these comparisons are unwarranted. An X user aptly summed up the sentiment:

"Dawnwalker looks amazing, just like The Witcher 4. Both works can coexist. One game doesn't mean the other is dead. It's not a competition. Let's show respect."

Patrick K. Mills, a key figure behind missions in The Witcher 3 and Cyberpunk 2077, contributed to the discussion, reinforcing that there is no rivalry between the teams:

"Anyone who tries to compare these games is doing the devil's work. The teams have a long history together, we hang out together, we play games together, our group chats are full of praise for each team. There's nothing but love here. The culture war will remain a culture war, but these games share a common origin and common values."

Philippe Weber, the narrative director for The Witcher 4, also chimed in, highlighting similarities in the trailers of both games:

"Mateusz Tomaszkiewicz and I were joking today about how the eyes in the dark in our two trailers were used as references to the TV series Midnight Mass to sell the idea early on. Many of the creators of the two games are friends, and we love seeing our friends succeed!"

Rebel Wolves, the studio behind The Blood of Dawnwalker, has set an ambitious goal—to create a new series of games capable of standing toe-to-toe with renowned franchises. Judging by the initial trailer, The Blood of Dawnwalker appears poised to be as impressive as any of CDPR's masterpieces.
