NoobFeed confirms FromSoftware 2026

NoobFeed reported on May 20 that FromSoftware’s two biggest announced Nintendo Switch 2 projects — Elden Ring: Tarnished Edition and The Duskbloods — are still slated for 2026. The report cited Kadokawa investor materials and framed the update as a response to concern that either game might have slipped out of the console’s first-year window. No new release dates were announced. NoobFeed said the significance was that both games were still being presented as part of the 2026 plan for Nintendo’s new hardware. ### Where did the fresh confirmation come from? NoobFeed’s May 20 story said Kadokawa had recently told investors that both Elden Ring: Tarnished Edition and The Duskbloods would still launch globally in 2026 on Nintendo Switch 2. The outlet did not report a narrower window than that, and it said neither project received a new trailer or a fixed launch date alongside the reaffirmation. (noobfeed.com) Kadokawa is the key corporate link here because it is FromSoftware’s parent. Its April 2, 2025 release for The Duskbloods said the game was scheduled for worldwide release in 2026 on Nintendo Switch 2. That release also described the project as an online multiplayer action game with PvPvE play and support for up to eight players. (noobfeed.com) ### What do the official pages still say about each game? Bandai Namco’s official page for Elden Ring: Tarnished Edition still lists the game for 2026 on Nintendo Switch 2. The page says the package includes the base Elden Ring, the Shadow of the Erdtree expansion, new armor, and customization features for Torrent. (group.kadokawa.co.jp) Nintendo’s U.S. page for The Duskbloods still describes it as “available exclusively” for Nintendo Switch 2. The page also presents it as a new multiplayer title from FromSoftware and links it to a Creator’s Voice feature with Hidetaka Miyazaki. ### Why were people asking if these games had slipped? (en.bandainamcoent.eu) Months had passed without major public updates for either title, and NoobFeed said that silence had fueled questions about timing, especially around The Duskbloods. The outlet noted that fans had not received major new gameplay footage or release-date announcements even as 2026 approached. (nintendo.com) NoobFeed also referenced unconfirmed retail chatter around Elden Ring: Tarnished Edition, including a Canadian store listing that pointed to July 10, 2026. The story said that date had not been confirmed. Because neither Nintendo nor Bandai Namco has published a day-and-date release announcement, the only firm public guidance remains 2026. (noobfeed.com) ### What is actually confirmed about The Duskbloods right now? Kadokawa’s release says The Duskbloods is a PvPvE multiplayer action game in which players compete against each other and against enemies. The company said players take the role of the “Bloodsworn” and that online play supports up to eight people. (noobfeed.com) Nintendo’s page adds one market detail that matters for platform watchers: The Duskbloods is being positioned as a Switch 2 exclusive. That distinguishes it from Elden Ring: Tarnished Edition, which is a Switch 2 version of an existing FromSoftware hit rather than a new Nintendo-exclusive release. (group.kadokawa.co.jp) ### So what should readers watch next? May 21 is the current state of play: both games still carry 2026 windows on official or cited corporate pages, but neither has a specific release date. NoobFeed’s contribution was not a new announcement; it was a fresh report that Kadokawa had not changed course. The next concrete update is likely to appear first on Bandai Namco’s Elden Ring: Tarnished Edition page or on Nintendo’s The Duskbloods product pages. (nintendo.com) Until one of those companies posts a date, 2026 remains the operative timetable for both releases on Nintendo Switch 2. (en.bandainamcoent.eu) (noobfeed.com)
