The Duskbloodsis a multiplayer game.

The Duskbloods looks a whole lot like Bloodborne, but the trailer reveals some major wrinkles.

Certainly not in the wayElden Ring Nightreign’s reveal trailer did.

There were tons of shots of players teaming up to face off against big boss monsters.

The Elden Ring spin-off is due out next month, and The Duskbloods will follow in 2026.

But, FromSoftware is not like Rockstar or Naughty Dog or Bethesda.

It puts out a new game every year or two.

That’s nine full-length experiences in ten years.

In the triple-A space,only Ryu Ga Gotoku works faster.

But I don’t see a reason to expect that this is a permanent direction for FromSoftware.

Its two TGA GOTY wins are both for single-player-focused games inSekiro’s case, exclusively single-player.

The Duskbloods' director Hidetaka Miyazaki hasoutright said that the studio will return to single-player games.

FromSoftware is making two multiplayer games in a row, sure.

Two is a repetition, but it isn’t a trend.

If it announces a third multiplayer only game, then it might be time to worry.

Until then, we can wait a little longer for a single-player follow-up.

It willprobably still arrive before the next one from Naughty Dog.

Yep, Bloodborne is better than Elden Ring.
