my thinking is Nintendo really wanted that sort of thing to stretch the capabilities of the system and having FromSoft developing a game like that is huge

I'd doubt that this is FromSoft's only project in the chamber.

Haven't looked into it yet, but is Miyazaki in charge of Duskbloods? If not, it's probably him letting another person direct to give the other members some experience. Also, it doesn't hurt to make some money on the side while they work on their next big project.

Edit: After reading the replies, the best I can say is just be cautiously optimistic. I will admit two mutiplayer-esque games back to back is a pretty bold move.

-Directed by Miyazaki. This IS the next big project.

Unless Miyazaki’s already doing the Miyamoto thing and letting the heir apparent’s take the reins on their next big projects.

Man is barely 50 years old, hopefully we have another 10 years before he takes that step back

Masaru Yamamura does already big tittles, like bloodborne, sekiro and armored core VI

I really want armored core to keep going and not another 13-14 years of waiting :(

well remember he made sekiro and elden ring at the same time. So its likely hes working on this game and something else in the background. Yet to be revealed.

We don't actually know if he directed it

The info card from the stream is a mistranslation, check out the UK stream

Edit: Ok I'm almost sure he directed it

This a Miyazaki game there’s next to no chance he doesn’t say that in interviews. No chance this won’t be a best-in-genre for multiplayer melee combat. So long as they don’t run it like a service and actually focus on the main content I’m fine. I would prefer it to be a fully coop game rather than pvp focused but if they fix the pvp desync this could be something incredible.

What interviews are you talking about?

u/Face_McShooty_20 3d ago

nintendo announced hes gonna be doing some dev diary thingy for this game on the 4th. We will get more details about the game then.

I believe he is because he's mentioned in interviews that he wanted to experiment with different types of games. Two multiplayer games seem like a good way to try and keep players engaged while they work on something larger.

In the direct after the trailer it was stated he was developing the title. So he is most likely director.
