Kadokawa Confirms The Duskbloods and Elden Ring Switch 2 Releases for 2026
FromSoftware's parent company, Kadokawa, has confirmed in its latest financial report that both the new exclusive title 'The Duskbloods' and the Switch 2 version of 'Elden Ring: Tarnished Edition' are scheduled for release in 2026. This announcement ends months of silence regarding the titles, particularly 'The Duskbloods,' which was revealed last April but has lacked subsequent gameplay footage or updates. The Switch 2 port of 'Elden Ring' was previously expected in late 2025 but was delayed to ensure optimal performance on Nintendo's new console. The 'Tarnished Edition' will include the base game, the 'Shadow of the Erdtree' DLC, and two new character classes. While fans express interest, some remain skeptical about purchasing the hardware solely for these titles. Industry observers anticipate that more concrete release dates may be announced during the upcoming Summer Game Fest opening showcase on June 5th. This update provides crucial reassurance to stakeholders and gamers awaiting these major entries on the next-generation Nintendo platform.
