FromSoftware originally wanted to make The Duskbloods an exclusive for the first Nintendo Switch
Translated with AI from the Russian original.
The studio reconsidered its decision when Nintendo told it about Switch 2.
According to Hidetaka Miyazaki, The Duskbloods was originally planned as an exclusive for the original Nintendo Switch, but when Nintendo told FromSoftware about Switch 2, the studio decided to move the project to the new platform.
FromSoftware showed Nintendo an early draft of the game, which was more like a disparate set of concepts than a full presentation, but that was enough to interest the “Big N,” which offered to help bring the studio’s ideas to life.
“The project was being developed by a small team for Nintendo Switch. However, as soon as the game began to take shape, Nintendo approached us and told us about Switch 2, after which we revised our plans with this new hardware in mind,” says Miyazaki.
According to Miyazaki, the new console’s emphasis on online features and multiplayer allowed the studio to “stick as closely as possible to the original ideas.”
