What if Bloodborne 2 was launched on Switch 2, right, and it was set in London and had dinosaurs in it, and people with long fingers, and Remy from Ratatouille. Yeah, that's what we want.
Well, The Duskbloods, FromSoftware's latest, which has just been announced exclusively for Switch 2, looks to fit this particular bill very well. With action and atmospherics very reminiscent of FromSoftware's masterpiece (it's their best game, thanks), this could tick a whole lot of action RPG boxes for the new system when it launches in 2026. Wow!
Here's the blurb from the YouTube trailer and some pics:
The moontears will flow for one and one alone when The Duskbloods, a brand-new multiplayer game by FromSoftware, is coming exclusively to Nintendo Switch 2 in 2026!
We will, of course, have more info on the game as it comes in...aaaaaand we've got some more info! The game, much like Elden Ring: Nightreign (we suspect) has got an online, multiplayer element. Indeed it looks as though, players fighting both themselves and AI will be the whole hook here.
Nintendo of America took to X in the moments following the Nintendo Direct to confirm that the game, which is PvPvE-focused, will provisionally release in 2026. The language used in the tweet does make us doubt that date though, we gotta say. But fingers crossed they stick to it.
Nintendo has revealed also that much more will be announced about The Duskbloods in a special Creator’s Voice with Miyazaki, set to publish on the official Nintendo website on April 4th.
Elden Ring: Tarnished Edition was also confirmed for the new console during today's Switch 2 Direct.
