- Network-test feedback included concerns about PvP balance.

## Summary

From Software has delayed its multiplayer game The Duskbloods from 2026 to 2027, saying it needs more time to refine the rules and balance. The studio says the game is already at the final adjustment stage, and the delay follows a network test that drew interest in its combat and strategic depth.

The game is a Nintendo Switch 2 exclusive combining player-versus-player and player-versus-environment combat with battle royale, extraction and scoring elements. Test feedback was mixed, with concerns including match complexity and a sniper-rifle class seen as particularly strong in PvP; the extra time is intended to improve the balance.
