Forget midnight launches; it’s all about getting the game installed and ready to play for launch, rather than buying it then. The Blood of Dawnwalker is another modern example that you can preload early, so find out how much space you need on PS5, XBOX, and PC.
I feel dirty saying the word ‘digital’ given how touchy it’s become in 2026. However, the fact is that many of you have already bought The Blood of Dawnwalker digitally and are patiently waiting in your crypt, ready to rise and feast on Rebel Wolves‘ work with your fangs.
Even days out, we know how big the game is and preload details.
When Can You Preload The Blood of Dawnwalker?
You can start preloading The Blood of Dawnwalker from September 1, at least on PS5.
Thanks to PlayStation Game Size, we’ve learned that The Blood of Dawnwalker’s preload date is September 1, meaning you can get the game ready a full two days before launch.

There’s no early access for The Blood of Dawnwalker, meaning the global launch time is the same for everyone, and you can play earlier than those waiting on a disc if you opt to *whisper it* go digital.
The Blood of Dawnwalker is also available on Steam and XBOX, and the preload date is more than likely going to be the same.
The Blood of Dawnwalker File Sizes & Storage Required
The Blood of Dawnwalker’s file size on PS5 is allegedly 50.505 GB, whereas PC owners will need up to 60 GB of free space to make room for the Action RPG, and it could be as much as 80 GB on XBOX.

We don’t have the exact size for PC, but using the Blood of Dawnwalker PC System Requirements, it states that for any setup, you need ’60 GB SSD’ for storage.
Finally, the XBOX Store page for the game clearly shows ‘Approximate size 80 GB’ for storage.
XBOX owners usually get the short end of the stick for file sizes, and it looks like The Blood of Dawnwalker is another bitey customer for the green brand.
