From Software has two known games in development currently–with one set to be released very soon–and both of them are built around a core multiplayer experience. Elden Ring: Nightreign offers a co-op souls-like adventure, while Switch 2 exclusive The Duskbloods is heavily focused on PvPvE gameplay. This has raised some concern amongst From Software fans that the studio will develop more multiplayer games in the future, but From Software boss and Duskbloods director Hidetaka Miyazaki says that the developer isn’t shifting exclusively to online multiplayer games.

«As previously mentioned, this is an online multiplayer title at its core, but this doesn’t mean that we as a company have decided to shift to a more multiplayer-focused direction with titles going forward,» Miyazaki said in a Nintendo interview. «The Nintendo Switch 2 version of Elden Ring was also announced, and we still intend to actively develop single-player-focused games such as this that embrace our more traditional style.»
Miyazaki also spoke more about the setting, characters, and themes of The Duskbloods, explaining how players will control a group of characters known as the Bloodsworn. Starring a group of superhuman warriors that are similar to vampires, Miyazaki said that the game takes place during the end of human society and revolves around the Bloodsworn chasing after something known as First Blood. The Duskbloods–which was originally pitched for the Switch–will launch for Switch 2 in 2026.
While PC, PlayStation, and Xbox gamers won’t get to play it unless they decide to purchase a Switch 2 console, they can look forward to Elden Ring: Nightreign when it launches on May 30. «Nightreign looks to be very much a From Software game, and I’m more intrigued by it now than I was before getting some time with it,» Tamoor Hussain wrote in GameSpot’s Elden Ring Nightreign preview.
