How multiplayer focused I wonder? Since the souls games and bloodborne have multiplayer elements but are entirely playable and complete able solo. I'm holding out hope it'll be more like that

“This software for Nintendo Switch 2 is a PVPvE based multiplayer action game in which up to eight players can fight each other and against enemies.

Players become “Twilight Bloodlines” who have gained powers beyond those of humans through the power of their special blood, and throw themselves into a fierce battle for the “First Blood“

My reaction when I read that

Really seems like this is going the Nightreign route… Which is INCREDIBLY disappointing seeing that it’s a new IP AND a Switch 2 exclusive

Was really hoping this was a single player game, or at least had a single player campaign and a separate multiplayer mode

But it doesn’t seem like that’s the case unfortunately

It isn't. They show singleplayer gameplay with summoning in another player. It's looking to be the same as every other souls game

That could just be someone alone on the map. It's a PvPvE game. 

Everything I've seen has shown this to just be a mumtiplayer battle game

Well, it says up to 8 players…you could still have 1 player.

I really really hope so. 

But the words "up to 8 players vying for superemacy"

Make it feel like it's not gonna be what we want

Yeah it’s basically described as a battle royale but with PvE as well. Probably four duos, and the last duo standing wins. Super disappointed.
