FromSoftware Keeps The Duskbloods Under Wraps While Reconfirming a 2026 Release Window

  • The Duskbloods – Nintendo Direct | Switch 2 Exclusive
    The Duskbloods Trailer

    To recap: The Duskbloods is slated for a 2026 arrival, though the specific timing and the next gameplay reveal remain shrouded in mystery. For those who followed the long, silent development cycle of Elden Ring, this pattern of secrecy feels intimately familiar—and perhaps even expected from a FromSoftware production.

    Anticipation for the game is exceptionally high, as it represents FromSoftware’s first dedicated Nintendo exclusive since 2003’s Lost Kingdoms 2. Industry veterans and fans alike have high expectations for the project. What little information has leaked suggests a dark, atmospheric take on supernatural lore.

    The game reportedly focuses on the “Bloodsworn”—vampiric entities that draw more from gothic romance and ancient mythology than modern horror tropes. In a world where humanity has nearly vanished, these powerful beings engage in high-stakes combat. Reports suggest a significant focus on both PvE and competitive PvP elements, though we will have to wait for an official deep dive to see how these systems integrate.

    Regardless of the wait, a 2026 release ensures it will be a cornerstone of the Switch 2 library. We will continue to monitor the situation as more details emerge.
