The Switch 2's upcoming The Duskbloods represents a major multiplayer experiment for FromSoftware, with as many as eight Bloodsworn competing through a mixture of PvP combat, PvE encounters, objectives, and temporary alliances.

The Duskbloods is a stark departure from the Japan-based studio’s prior projects. It has elements from games like Elden Ring and its Nightreign expansion, but it’s clear that, when partnering with Nintendo on this Switch 2 exclusive, FromSoftware wanted to subvert expectations a bit.

A PvPvE experience that is unlike anything I’ve ever played, The Duskbloods is a stark departure from the Soulsborne titles fans are used to. It’s addictive, but in its own way.

As the servers prep for this influx of characters, detailed information about every character in The Duskbloods (as well as their corresponding classes, almost like a hero shooter x Soulslike hybrid) has appeared online.

It’s also Hidetaka Miyazaki’s first game acting as a director since Elden Ring.
