The Blood of Dawnwalker is scheduled to arrive next month with a 40fps maximum on its reported PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S versions. Rebel Wolves is developing the game, while Bandai Namco will publish it, and a 60fps console performance option is not planned for launch.
According to reports from Eurogamer and VGC, newly shown gameplay from the console builds displays the 40fps cap. The information concerns the current-generation launch versions and does not describe how the game will run on PC.
Console players will have a 40fps ceiling at launch
Frame rate measures how frequently a game updates its on-screen image each second. A 40fps limit means the console editions will not offer the higher frame-rate setting that some players look for when choosing between graphics and performance options.
The cap applies across the reported PS5 and Xbox Series X/S releases. That makes the decision significant for players planning to buy the game on those systems at release: every launch-console version will share the same maximum frame rate, rather than offering a 60fps alternative.
Console performance modes have become a key part of release decisions for current-generation games, especially when footage appears before launch. The new material gives prospective buyers a clearer view of one technical constraint, even though it does not yet show the full set of settings behind that 40fps target.
Several technical details have yet to surface
The exact release date remains unspecified beyond next month. Rebel Wolves and Bandai Namco have not detailed the resolution, visual settings, or other technical trade-offs used by the 40fps modes, and it remains unclear whether the developers could add a 60fps option after launch. The performance options for the PC edition also have not been described.
