Summary
- The Duskbloods is a gothic RPG exclusive to Nintendo Switch 2, resembling Bloodborne 2.
- The game features fast, relentless combat and nightmare-fueled monstrosities.
- Nintendo Switch 2 launch in 2025 includes major reveals, making it a significant console release.
At the unveiling of the Nintendo Switch 2, FromSoftware introduced The Duskbloods, an action RPG with a gothic theme that will be exclusive to the upcoming console. Already, fans are referring to it as “Bloodborne 2” in all but name, and for a valid reason.
The movie begins by showcasing an expansive gothic urban landscape, where colossal cathedrals create long, ominous shadows on foggy avenues. In the distance, the backdrop is dominated by Victorian-style buildings, bathed in the characteristic ambiance of decay and fear that FromSoftware often employs.
The comment section exploded with reactions:
“I can’t believe Nintendo got Bloodborne 2 before Bloodborne got Bloodborne 2!”

The fight unfolds swiftly, intensely, and incessantly, with no moments of respite. A character is observed skillfully evading enemy assaults, only to retaliate with a brutal counterattack. In another scene, they seem to be extracting the life force from an adversary, suggesting a mechanism that drains power, reminiscent of Sekiro’s deathblows and Bloodborne’s visceral attacks combined.
In a chilling fusion of terror, creatures straight out of nightmares reminiscent of Bloodborne and the haunting atmosphere of Dark Souls roam this city. Dinosaurs that devour men patrol the streets, grotesque beasts rise from the mist, and eerie figures hide in the shadows. Reaching new heights in gothic horror, you won’t believe it – but this terrifying experience is exclusive to the rumored Nintendo Switch 2.
For almost ten years now, enthusiasts of the game Bloodborne have been eagerly requesting a sequel. Yet, instead, the creators of that game, FromSoftware, found themselves contractually bound to develop another major gothic horror RPG for Nintendo, leaving PlayStation fans feeling quite upset.
“We got Bloodborne 2 for Switch 2 before Bloodborne for PC.”
“FromSoft Gothic Steampunk Souls with Vampires? Sounds sick. IT’S EXCLUSIVE TO WHAT?”
The unveiling of the Nintendo Switch 2 wasn’t solely focused on the big surprise; it also verified a larger display, the comeback of the C-Button, and significant announcements such as Mario Kart World and Elden Ring becoming available on the platform.
As someone eagerly anticipating The Duskbloods’ release in 2026, I find myself pondering over a fresh gaming platform to embrace. While Xbox and Nintendo enthusiasts continue their joyful journeys, PlayStation fans like me can’t help but feel a twinge of envy, as we eagerly await the arrival of this exciting new reason to be enamored with our beloved console.
The Nintendo Switch 2 is set to launch on June 5th, 2025.
