Overview
- Reports attributed to a Chinese journalist, shared by creator Ziostorm, claim The Duskbloods spent more time in pure gameplay prototyping than any prior FromSoftware title.
- The same source says the project was greenlit before Sekiro’s marketing window and has been in development since around 2019, according to Vice’s summary.
- FromSoftware has described the game as a PvPvE multiplayer experience built for Nintendo’s next Switch hardware, with a 2026 release window and no specific date announced.
- The leak suggests broader promotion will begin only after the Elden Ring Nightreign DLC rollout, with observers speculating about near-term trailers though none are confirmed.
- The journalist characterizes the game’s mechanics as unusually innovative and potentially influential, with Hidetaka Miyazaki directing and early footage prompting but not confirming Bloodborne comparisons.
