Nintendo Switch 2

Current product copy

SKU 7100098071 and NSUID 70010000098071 identify the US product. Availability is Coming soon. Play modes list TV, tabletop, and handheld. Supported language on the US listing is American English. Rating is pending / may contain content inappropriate for children, with Blood and Gore and Violence on Nintendo news modules. The UK listing shows PEGI 16 Provisional. Kadokawa has said the title would be sold jointly with Nintendo with regional sales responsibilities, Switch 2 only, still without a specific date.

Miyazaki’s origin story: the project began on Nintendo Switch after a Nintendo pitch, then restarted for Switch 2 online hardware. He says the online focus does not mean FromSoftware is abandoning traditional single-player games. Elden Ring on Switch 2 was announced in the same period. Those studio remarks do not change the store SKU or the 2026 window. Those studio remarks do not change SKU 7100098071 or NSUID 70010000098071, and the US listing still names American English plus TV, tabletop, and handheld modes for the 2026 window.

Three dated versions

Press the 2026 product button to keep this page on current store copy. Press 2 April 2025 to read the Direct announcement. Press August 2026 to read Network Test Ver. operations without making those rules the default. Test-only bans on capture, friends, and save carryover stay labelled. The default well on load is the Switch 2 2026 product, not the test window. The default well on load is the Switch 2 2026 product, not the test window, so capture bans, friend-invite gaps, and no-save-carryover stay behind the August 2026 button until you press it.

Press 2 April 2025 for Direct-day identity, press 2026-08-21 for Network Test Ver. session rules, and press Switch 2 2026 to restore current store copy. The well never mixes test-only capture bans into the default 2026 product paragraph.

Those three buttons are the only version switch on this page; Dusk Battles and Bloodsworn stay on current match vocabulary unless you follow the network-test operations link.

Official films

FromSoftware’s debut trailer and Nintendo of America’s 6. 9. 2026 Direct are the two chapters on this page. Facades load youtube-nocookie only after a click. The April 2025 Direct thumbnail appears as a still elsewhere; the playable chapter here is the debut plus the June 2026 Direct. A dedicated network-test film sits on the Network Test page so this route can stay a platform page. Facades never preload a youtube-nocookie iframe: one click mounts one player for FromSoftware debut 020HBXwwFeo or Nintendo Direct 6. 9. 2026 d0ij2uQ87nc, and the network-test film stays on the operations page so this route remains a platform article.

Pick FromSoftware debut to load 020HBXwwFeo, or Nintendo Direct 6. 9. 2026 to load d0ij2uQ87nc. Both facades stay click-to-mount on youtube-nocookie. The April 2025 Direct thumbnail is a still elsewhere; the playable chapters here are debut plus June 2026.

A dedicated FromSoftware network-test announcement film remains on the Network Test page so this Switch 2 article can keep platform identity in the default chapter.

Online requirements that stay in 2026

Nintendo Switch Online membership and a Nintendo Account are required for online features on the US listing, with the usual note that membership auto-renews and that the service is not available in all countries. The Duskbloods itself is PvPvE online multiplayer for up to eight. Network Test Ver. made that online-only with listed TCP and UDP ports; the retail listing does not republish those ports, so this page does not pretend they are the 2026 product’s live list.

Save Data Cloud backup is unsupported on US and UK pages. Play modes are TV, tabletop, and handheld. American English is the US supported language. PEGI 16 Provisional is the UK rating line. US rating pending is not the same as a published ESRB letter; Nintendo news modules still attach Blood and Gore and Violence. Kadokawa’s joint-sales remark is business context, not a second SKU.

If you opened this page to ask whether the game is on another platform, first-party listings present a Switch 2 exclusive. If you opened it to ask the day, store pages still say 2026. Press the timeline’s network-test button only when you want the August 2026 session rules; the default well stays on the current product so test bans on capture and friends do not leak into 2026 copy.

Creators Voice part 1 is the director interview that names Bloodsworn, First Blood, Twilight of Humanity, PvPvE, and the lack of a fixed era. Part 2 names the hub loop, over-a-dozen roster, super jump and firearms, Victory Points, summons, and match events. Those interviews are 2026 product identity, not test patch notes. The store SKU does not change when you press a timeline button. Only the fact well does.

Storefront languages and this wiki

Nintendo US lists American English. Nintendo FR, ES, and MX storefronts keep the title The Duskbloods. The Japanese spec adds the reading ダスクブラッド beside the same Latin title. Campaign locale pickers include The Americas, Europe (Poland, France, Spain among others), and Asia Pacific (Japan, Korea, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Thailand). This wiki’s 14 locales follow that official name, not a machine-translated local title.

Online features need NSO in countries where that service exists. The listing’s “not available in all countries” line is Nintendo’s, not a region lock invented here. If you are reading a translated locale of this site after Stage 60, the platform facts on this page should still match the store SKU and the 2026 window. Test-only capture bans belong under the network-test timeline button, not in the default 2026 well.

The official site at theduskbloods. jp mirrors the same title and links the campaign hub. FromSoftware’s English X account @TheDuskbloods is the status channel named in the FAQ. Instagram @fromsoftware_inc exists as a studio account; it did not replace the Nintendo SKU. Press the 2 April 2025 timeline button for Direct-day facts, then return to Switch 2 2026 before you quote test bans as if they were retail policy. Miyazaki’s Switch-then-Switch-2 origin, the over-a-dozen roster, and the no-cloud-saves store line all stay in the default well.
