Not only does it share our values, but also its track record in publishing narrative-driven RPGs speaks for itself.” further adding, “We’re looking forward to working with them to bring the first chapter of the Dawnwalker saga to gamers worldwide.”

Bandai Namco Entertainment Europe vice president for business development Alberto Gonzalez added, “This is another key milestone in our content development strategy for the Western market. By combining our strengths, we will deliver this first game of the studio to a worldwide audience. We’re excited with the universe being created by Rebel Wolves thanks to their extremely talented team of developers, resulting in a great addition to our portfolio.”

Dawnwalker is described as a “dark fantasy narrative sandbox, AAA action RPG” set in medieval Europe. It is built on Unreal Engine 5. More information about the game will be announced in “the coming months.”

Best of luck to them.
But at this point it's becoming hard to care about all these new studio made up by "ex devs from this other well known studio" doing early work on some game we might see in 5-6 years.

Hopefully this is one of the studios that doesn't go under and they resurface in 3-4 years with something more concrete
