The Duskbloods network test gathered more applications than Elden Ring: Nightreign

Player interest in the upcoming project The Duskbloods turned out to be colossal. As FromSoftware producer Yasuhiro Kitao reported during a recent Famitsu magazine livestream, the number of people wishing to participate in the game's closed network test was higher than during the similar test for Elden Ring: Nightreign.

Unexpected hype around Switch 2

FromSoftware admitted that such a strong response came as a real surprise to them. Since the Switch 2 console was released relatively recently and its user base is still actively growing, the developers did not expect to break the popularity record of a major multiplatform project.

These results clearly demonstrate the Nintendo community's immense interest in the studio's hardcore and ambitious games on the next-generation platform.
