With Halloween on Saturday, thoughts are naturally turning to spooky games. Horror games, scary levels within non-scary games, games about witches or ghosts or vampires. A few months ago, if you’d asked me, I’d have said sure, I’ll probably be playing FromSoftware’s The Duskbloods on Halloween this year. But unless there’s a very unexpected surprise release coming up, that doesn’t seem to be happening. In fact, fans are speculating confidently by now that The Duskbloods will be delayed all the way into next year.
This theory has been floating around for a while now, but is only growing more persistent as the year wears on. The Duskbloods, as far as FromSoftware and Nintendo have told us, is coming out sometime in 2026. But we’re very, very rapidly running out of 2026, and the game still doesn’t have a firm release day pinned down, or even a window. It seems wildly unlikely that it would launch in November given that The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time and Grand Theft Auto 6 are stealing the focus ahead of Thanksgiving and Black Friday. And while it could manifest in December, usually Nintendo and every other major company wrap things up for the holidays and don’t drop big releases after Thanksgiving, often not until February the following year.
Now, all of that is just conjecture based on past trends, but it does feel right. And what’s not helping the case for a 2026 Duskbloods release is the total radio silence from FromSoftware and Nintendo on the game for months now.
