The Duskbloods Leak Shows Game‑Play Ahead of Closed‑Network Test
A 2‑minute clip posted on Bilibili displays the first public look at FromSoftware’s Nintendo Switch 2 exclusive, The Duskbloods, confirming a closed‑network test scheduled for August 21 2026.
The footage features the Moon Blood Bestowal arena, where teams with the highest Victory Points clash to claim the title “Victor of the Dusk.” Players control characters such as Walter the Blood Eater, Gillian the Guillotine, and Rust‑Gospel Baldur.
Fast‑Paced Combat, Summons and Unexpected Transformations
All‑out fighting between multiple players highlights rapid aerial combos, air juggles and the ability to call summons to aid in battle, echoing the mechanics of Elden Ring Night Reign.
Walter pulls a gun that feels like a Bloodborne gauge, while one character morphs into a dinosaur and hurls an opponent off‑stage, adding a surprising visual twist.
Test Schedule, Pre‑load Options and Feature Limitations
The game, occupying 3.8 GB on the Nintendo eShop, can be pre‑loaded on a Nintendo Switch 2 for those selected for testing. No friend‑invite or solo mode is available during the closed test; co‑op will return in the full 2026 release.
