Yes. You can switch between day and night in The Blood of Dawnwalker by waiting at a Shrine.
You do not have to wait for the day/night cycle to change on its own.
If you need daytime or nighttime for a quest, NPC, or activity, you can use a restored Shrine to move time forward until you reach the time of day you need.
How Do You Change from Day to Night?
Go to a restored Shrine and interact with it.
From the Shrine menu, choose the option to Wait and move the clock forward.
You can use this to change:
- Day → Night
- Night → Day
This is useful because some quests, NPCs, and activities are only available during a specific time of day.
Why Would You Want to Change the Time?
Day and night change more than the way the world looks.
Coen is human during the day and vampire at night, giving you access to different abilities depending on the time.
Some locations and objectives can also require a particular time of day. The map helps with this by using a sun icon for daytime activities and a moon icon for nighttime activities.
So if you reach an objective and cannot do what you expected, check whether it needs to be completed during the day or at night.
Does Switching Day and Night Cost Time?
Yes.
Waiting at a Shrine moves the clock forward, so changing the time of day uses some of your limited in-game time.
That means you should not constantly switch between day and night for no reason.
If you already have something useful to do during the current time of day, you may want to do that first instead of spending time just to reach day or night.
Quick Answer
Yes, you can switch between day and night in The Blood of Dawnwalker.
Use the Wait option at a restored Shrine to move time forward until you reach day or night.
Just remember that waiting uses your limited time, so it is better to change the time when you actually need a different form, quest, NPC, or activity.
