The Duskbloods: FromSoftware goes Switch 2 — and the Bloodborne faithful are stirring
“The moontears will flow for one and one alone.” FromSoftware's brand-new multiplayer title lands in 2026, exclusively on Nintendo Switch 2 — gothic blood-magic aesthetic, the Dark Souls and Elden Ring pedigree, and a community already calling it the spiritual successor to Bloodborne that Sony never made.
The Bloodborne-shaped hole
A decade of begging for a Bloodborne sequel, remaster — anything — and the answer arrives wearing Nintendo red. The gothic look, the blood, the FromSoftware name: the community verdict formed within hours of the reveal, and the soundtrack previews have only fed it — the music thread is genuinely worth your time. To be clear, that's the fans talking, not FromSoftware: officially this is a new multiplayer-focused work, not a Bloodborne anything. But nobody watching that trailer thinks the resemblance is accidental.

A FromSoft game with no platinum
Here's the identity crisis nobody's talking about: Switch 2 means no trophies, no achievements, no platinum — the first major FromSoftware release of the modern era where the completion exists only in your head. The souls community that speedran Elden Ring's platinum in days meets the one platform that keeps no score. We'll track the release date and every detail on our Nintendo coming-soon board — and when FromSoft's other projects surface trophy lists, our Trophy Radar catches them within hours.
