FromSoftware has delayed the release of its Nintendo Switch 2 exclusive game The Duskbloods to 2027, citing the need for final adjustments to game rules and balancing. The decision follows a series of network tests, including one in August, during which the studio observed player interest in the game's combat, strategic depth and player expression. Originally set for a 2026 release, the game will now launch in 2027 without a specific date. The studio apologized to players who have been awaiting the game since its reveal during a Switch 2 showcase in 2025.
The delay allows more time to refine the game's mechanics and address performance issues reported during earlier tests. FromSoftware stated that the extra development time is intended to enhance core aspects of the gameplay experience. No further details about the new release window were provided.
