The Duskbloods Applicants Can Now See If They Were Selected

That opens the way for codes to be sent before scheduled, time-limited test sessions on Nintendo Switch 2 that require Nintendo Switch Online.

Overview

  • FromSoftware published selection results on Friday, Aug. 7, and applicants can log in to the Duskbloods account page to see a clear 'SELECTED' or 'NOT SELECTED' message.
  • Outlets report selected players will receive download codes via the same site beginning Aug. 18 at 6:00 a.m. PDT, so chosen participants should check the account page for their code.
  • The Network Test is set for the weekend of Aug. 21–24 in limited, scheduled sessions, though Polygon says the test will run as five four-hour sessions from Aug. 21–23, creating small public discrepancies in the timing.
  • Participation is limited to Nintendo Switch 2 owners with an active Nintendo Switch Online membership, so only players with both the console and subscription can join the test.
  • The Duskbloods is an eight-player PvPvE Victorian-Gothic original IP due later in 2026 with no firm date and director Hidetaka Miyazaki has reiterated that FromSoftware will continue to make single-player games.
