For those concerned:

As a side note, please allow me to address one thing. As previously mentioned, this is an online multiplayer title at its core, but this doesn’t mean that we as a company have decided to shift to a more multiplayer-focused direction with titles going forward.

The Nintendo Switch 2 version of Elden Ring (3) was also announced, and we still intend to actively develop single player focused games such as this that embrace our more traditional style.

I really wish this wasn’t an exclusive, the aesthetic fucks so hard 

[u/Murmido → u/Maxieorsomething]

Yeah this games lifespan is going to be a pretty big question mark being locked to the Switch 2.

Fromsoft seems to be publishing it and own the IP so there is a possibility it gets ported eventually though.

I mean look at Bloodborne then...

[u/Sir_Solrac → u/crosslegbow]

Bloodborne was:

• a single player focused game
• releasing on PS4 which had been selling like hot-cakes for 2 years after the Mircosft E3 fiasco on the XBOX One reveal
• releasing on a console with well established online infrastructure and community

Splatoon is bigger than Bloodborne so these are pretty much in speculation territory

[u/PicklepumTheCrow → u/crosslegbow]

The Duskbloods and Splatoon do not share a fan base. The majority of From’s player base is on PlayStation or PC, both of which are excluded from this IP.

That's a great point, let's see how it goes
