” The Switch 2-exclusive multiplayer action game puts players in the role of Bloodsworn, fighting alongside and against up to seven other players in PvEvP battles. The new trailer showed more playable characters and blood-based combat powers, but Nintendo and FromSoftware are still keeping the full structure mysterious.
That is probably wise. The Duskbloods is not a traditional Soulslike and not a normal battle royale, so the network test will matter enormously.
It has to prove the combat, matchmaking, balance and chaos actually work on real players. If it does, Switch 2 may have one of the strangest exclusives in FromSoftware history.
