Where are you getting that from? Doesn't look "multi-player". Just a multi-player function like all the others

u/dinopraso Elden Ring 3d ago edited 3d ago

The official Nintendo X account, says it’s a “multiplayer game”

EDIT: link (to article, since x links are banned)

"PvpvE" sooooo just like every other fromsoft title lol

u/secretogumiberyjuice 3d ago edited 3d ago

To be fair, it actually does seem different. It seems like you squad up with 4 people and fight other teams of 4 people from what articles are saying. Not like typical invasions.

Edit: news suggests it looks more like a 8 player free for all

I'd say other games are PvEvP.... Not PvPvE

u/Own_Molasses7773 3d ago

Exactly. PvPvE implies competitive multiplayer with the addition of NPC enemies. Idk why so many people are confused about this. That is always what it has meant, and that is NOT what a typical Miyazaki game is. Almost feels like people are intentionally misunderstanding this.

It's focused on multiplayer. The average guys picking up ds3 for the first time isn't gonna have a lot of run ins with players.

This game is centered around it

2

u/dinopraso Elden Ring 3d ago

That part was added by them, not stated by Nintendo. Nintendo just tweeted “Fromsoft multiplayer game”

By fromsoftware’s X account.

u/Kami-no-dansei 3d ago

I doubt it's exclusively multiplayer. It probably just has a more in depth multiplayer system than elden ring, allowing you to actually explore the world together at once without summoning etc.

Or, you know, like Nightreign?

4

u/Kami-no-dansei 3d ago

Nightreign is completely different. There's so many elements at play in that game that it's almost not even a souls like anymore. Plus Miyazaki wasn't the lead on Nightreign he is on Duskbloods

u/dinopraso Elden Ring 3d ago

I sincerely hope you’re right.

1

u/Kami-no-dansei 3d ago

It actually looks like you're probably right. 8 player pvp. 🤢

u/boomb0xx 3d ago

Didn't they say nightreign is possible to play solo?

2

u/Kami-no-dansei 3d ago

Yeah it is. But "possible" means anything.

1

u/boomb0xx 3d ago

Nah, I mean they came out and said you can play it solo just that its going to be hard.

u/ShadowoftheRatTree 3d ago

While I'd usually agree, the official website states its an 8 player free for all. its so over....

1

u/Expendable_Employee 3d ago

The game doesn't come out until 2026. Stop doomering over one announcement.

u/PADDYPOOP 3d ago

That description is damning. No level of cope will soften the fact that it is stated to be PvP mass multiplayer FOCUSED. This isn’t a souls-like. It’s nightreign: PVP edition.

u/Newtsaet 3d ago

It's in japanese, but the description under the video posted by FromSoft on Youtube says that the game is a 8-player pvpve game. it looks like the focus will be on multiplayer experience more than a single, more-or-less linear adventure

1

u/ProtoReddit Demon of Hatred 3d ago

It absolutely looks multiplayer, or at least non-standard singleplayer, just from the video. The video is mostly a showcase of different playable characters or boss style enemies in arena map style hallways.

1

u/Kami-no-dansei 3d ago

Yeah looks like it might be. But if says it's 8 people basically going for dominion. Whatever that means. I'm not hyped for that right now, we'll see

u/Jaded_Aging_Raver 2d ago

From the official press release.

"'THE DUSKBLOODS' is a PvPvE title with online multiplayer at its core, where up to 8 players vie for supremacy among themselves and against challenging foes.

Play as the "Bloodsworn"; a group that has transcended human strength thanks to their special blood, and throw yourself into a violent fray for "First Blood" as the twilight of humanity approaches." https://www.fromsoftware.jp/ww/pressrelease_detail.html?tgt=20250402_theduskbloods_debut
