Exclusive Though?The Duskbloods is FromSoftwares next game, a Switch 2 exclusive coming in 2026, and guaranteed system sellerThe Duskbloods is to Bloodborne what Dark Souls was to Demon's Souls, right? RIGHT? News by Sherif Saed Contributing Editor Published on April 2, 2025 People are going to argue for a while which of todays Nintendo Switch 2 Direct reveals was the biggest, but I am more inclined to say it was The Duskbloods. This is the next project from the iconic FromSoftware.The Duskbloods appears to be a follow-up to Bloodborne in all but name, and its coming exclusively to the Switch 2 in 2026.To see this content please enable targeting cookies. The Duskbloods is directed by Hidetaka Miyazaki, the legendary director behind many of FromSoftwares games, including Dark Souls, Bloodborne, Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, and Elden Ring.The Duskbloods reveal was one of the few Nintendo decided to keep for the very end of the showcase. We got a nice, meaty look at gameplay, and the footage looks to have been captured from a Switch 2, seemingly running at 30fps.As the name suggests, The Duskbloods has a major vampire element. Characters are seen biting the necks of, and sucking the blood out of enemies. It also appears to be an open-world game with a new steampunk-like jetpack that players will use to traverse the world. To see this content please enable targeting cookies.Indeed, The Duskbloods is set in what looks to be a steampunk version of London (or at least a city very much inspired by it). This all seems like the next evolution of Bloodborne.Though gameplay remains mostly in melee, theres a big emphasis on ranged weapons. One shot in the trailer has the player character using dual-SMGs - which admittedly looks a bit strange. The character is also shown multiple times with a rifle on their back.Were going to learn more on April 4, when Nintendo will publish an interview with Miyazaki himself on Nintendos website. Until then, start speculating now!
