The Blood of Dawnwalker Guide Covers Seven Reported Endings [Spoilers]

Spoiler warning: This article discusses the endings, major character routes and time-limit conditions in The Blood of Dawnwalker.

A new Video Games Chronicle guide by Dave Aubrey covers seven reported endings in The Blood of Dawnwalker. The routes involve Brencis, Crake, the protagonist’s family and the choice to leave Vale Sangora.

VGC describes the dark fantasy action RPG as a game built around multiple playthroughs, with different quests and conclusions shaped by player decisions. It also says an autosave made close to the in-game time limit may allow players to view different endings without replaying the entire campaign. That autosave behavior is part of the guide’s advice, not a feature confirmed by the official sources supplied here.

The seven reported endings

The secondary guides identify seven outcome slots: The Turncoat, Folk Hero, The Patricide, Knyazmaker, Together Forever, A Hero They Deserve or Coward’s Path, and Time Runs Out.

That list contains seven reported outcomes, not eight separate endings. The apparent extra name comes from inconsistent categorization between the guides: PowerPyx and Fextralife use variations such as “Together… Forever…” and associate A Hero They Deserve with Coward’s Path in different ways. The supplied evidence does not establish one official naming scheme for these labels.

PowerPyx’s guide independently lists seven endings and reports that several major conclusions require defeating the three members of the court before reaching the final confrontation within 30 in-game days. This supports the seven-ending structure, but the detailed requirements remain secondary reporting rather than a complete official breakdown from Rebel Wolves or Bandai Namco.

What the reported routes involve

VGC describes approaches that include defeating Brencis alone, defeating him with Crake, making a deal with Brencis, allying with other characters, leaving the valley and never returning, or remaining with the family.

For the Folk Hero outcome, the guide associates the route with defeating Brencis alone. It gives two reported ways to reach that confrontation: completing Father Florin’s missions to learn the secret knock, or finding the Side Gate Key at Racovitza’s Bandit Camp to enter Greifberg Castle.

PowerPyx labels Time Runs Out as a bad ending and reports that taking longer than 30 in-game days causes the family to die and prevents the In the Nick of Time outcome. The supplied sources do not establish which earlier choices are irrelevant or decisive across every route, so those conditions should be understood as information from the cited guides.

PS5 players have manual saves, but no confirmed chapter select

The official PlayStation Store listing confirms manual saving on the PS5 version. Players therefore have an official way to preserve a position before major decisions, but the listing does not confirm chapter selection or guarantee that a single save can access every ending.

The game is officially listed for PS5, with offline play, single-player support and PS5 Pro enhancements. The US PlayStation page gives September 3, 2026 as the release date, while a Danish regional page displays September 2; the difference may reflect local release timing rather than a conflicting launch schedule.

The Blood of Dawnwalker was developed by Rebel Wolves and published by Bandai Namco Entertainment Europe. The reported routes have partial support from independent guides, but no supplied primary source documents all seven outcomes and their requirements in full.
