The Duskbloods is copyrighted as Fromsoftware IP with Fromsoftware as licensor, whereas third party games that are full time exclusives are copyrighted with Nintendo.
[GREAT NEWS] The Duskbloods is entirely owned and published by From
That would be really cool if from wasn't shifting to multiplayer focused games.
You're terminally retarded.
No argument? Thanks for admitting I'm right.
Souls games were always multiplayer
Pve secondaries are not welcome
i think this means timed exclusive?
Way to ignore the word immediately following multiplayer.
I wanted a new Sekiro though
Good, cope and seethe. Eldenchads won
Retarded Anon Babbleirgin.
It might be really cool.
I'm glad that they're exploring more of the bloodborne aesthetic.
And I read somewhere that they said that they weren't done making single player focused adventure games. I always appreciated the coop in soulsborne games and would have liked to see a greater MP focus in bloodborne.
To me it would benefit from increased presence of "other hunters", especially players, because you're supposed to be embroiled in what is essentially a madness plague event starring "the entire city's population".
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.
YOU ARE TERMINALLY RETARDED. LOBOTOMIZE YOURSELF.
Yes, Fromsoftware is licensor but fully owns and publishes the game.
battle royale with shit art direction
No way is this going to launch. It's pure failure written all over it.
Cool, still don't care about multiplayer souls
Remember to pay $90+tip for a keycard, Goyim.
I don't really care. I'm just not interested in this game or Nightreign so I won't play them.
Has there ever been an instance of a game being advertised as exclusive only to be a timed exclusive?
Then don't. Why are you coming here to announce it?
Still not buying Nightreign nor Duskbloods
Unironically Sony does this all the time
This might have been a deal with Nintendo
Still won't save this zoomer extraction soulslike trash from being popular 2 months only
They've stated in interviews that they are still primarily focused on single player games but want to branch out into multiplayer territory
Great we'll have two nightreigns on PC. I shan't be playing either
Do they? iirc, they've always been advertised as "exclusive for a limited time." Or something like that.
Nioh. Sekiro. Ghosts. I dunno why it's mainly samurai games.
The interview openly states that they pitched the idea to Nintendo, and that it was designed for Switch 2. Even if From owns the rights, if the contract states it's exclusive to the Switch 2, it's exclusive to the Switch 2.
What this means, is From can do something they can't do with Bloodborne and Demons' Souls: make a direct sequel.
The majority of timed exclusives of 7th gen and prior had licensed publishing deals for oaunch lineups
Mass effect with xbox for example
it's multiplayer only so only the few people who play elden ring pvp would be interested. people who like multiplayer games are already busy playing fortnite and marvel rivals
Sony and Xbox did that a lot
If Nintendo doesn't own the IP, they can't forbid a port after the exclusivity agreement expires
This case is more like Nioh and Rise of the Ronin than Bloodborne
That doesn’t mean it’s timed exclusive.
Nintendo may have agreement where they gave From a bunch of money, From wanted to retain IP ownership, Nintendo would’ve wanted something out of the deal, and exclusivity is the only thing that makes sense.
that means jack shit Platinum games owns Bayonetta but her later games arent on any other console but Nintendos because they payed for it and the exclusivity.
There has never been the case of paying for eternal exclusivity rights.
Fromsoftware owns the IP, which means the
I also doubt they could throw as much money to keep a game they don't own permanently exclusive.
Even games published by Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo that are fully owned by their developers eventually hit multiplat
Nope
Bayonetta 3 copyright is
© Nintendo © SEGA Published by Nintendo
There has never been the case of paying for eternal exclusivity rights.
Bayonetta 2 and 3
also doubt they could throw as much money to keep a game they don't own permanently exclusive
Idk what childlike world you live in where you think that the time for exclusivity is directly proportionate to the amount of money thrown at a project. That's not how contracts work.
If Nintendo went to From, and said "hey we want a game, we'll fund it" and From said "ok, but we'd like to keep IP rights" and both parties agreed to those terms, then there's your contract.
Nobody is going to pick this up in PC lol. I think he's just self sabotaging since he notices he has too many retarded devs copying his every move and is growing tired of them.
It's openly described as a "partnership" with Nintendo in the interview. I doubt Nintendo would let them put it on other platforms given that.
It's fucking garbage
Then they should announce a fucking single player game instead of 2 multiplayer slopfests in a row
>There has never been the case of paying for eternal exclusivity rights.
Bayonetta 2 and 3
Both are owned by Nintendo, unlike The Duskbloods
That's not how contracts work.
It literally is. Nintendo for example only paid Capcom for 1 year Rise exclusivity agreement
You are a massive retard
It's openly described as a "partnership" with Nintendo in the interview
Yes, that's what timed exclusivity is
I doubt Nintendo would let them put it on other platforms given that.
They have no ownership over the game. If they had funded the development to the extend Sony did with Bloodborne, or struck a similar deal, they would own the game. But they don't
Yes, that's what timed exclusivity is
No, it's a partnership.
Then they should announce a fucking single player
yeah they should announce a single player game every year so retards like you can compare them to the call of duty devs again. shut your mouth, retard. their last SP game was released in 2023
No, it's timed exclusivity.
Nintendo doesn't develop the game
Nintendo doesn't publish the game
Whenever that's the case, then the studio rereleases the game as multiplat (see Wonderful 101)
It's directly described as a partnership.
Wonderful 101
This seems like a poor example to use because of what an exceptional case it is, especially considering they did publish the game's original release contrary to what you're suggesting
TW101's eventual rerelease as a multiplat was the result of its rights essentially being traded for Astral Chain's, presumably because they felt the latter was more valuable. I'm not aware of Nintendo ever having done anything similar before or since
Maybe it will happen with Duskbloods but it's really not a comparable situation in any case
All you have is empty words, you stupid faggot. FACT is their only announced games are BOTH multiplayer slop. Dumb fucking cunt.
a beautiful dance of blades—an elegant, deadly ballet where every strike, deflection, and step is a precise motion in a larger, choreographed duel of life and death. It’s not just combat; it’s an art form. The katana sings with each clash, steel meeting steel in rhythmic cadence, as if locked in a timeless ritual between warrior souls.
The game demands grace under pressure. Parries must be timed with heartbeat precision, and counters feel like sweeping pirouettes in the face of danger. When you master the rhythm—when your blade becomes an extension of your will—the chaos turns to poetry. A single duel can feel like a performance, breathtaking in its brutality, yet serene in its execution.
In Sekiro, victory isn't won by brute strength alone—it's earned through patience, observation, and the fluid mastery of motion. It's a deadly waltz, where hesitation means death, but perfect timing brings transcendence.
Bayonetta 2 aaaaaaaaaany day now
Bayonetta 2
owned by Fromasoftware, unlike The Duskbloods
Fromasoftware
*Jewtendo
In any case, if you think this means they will port it to Sony then ask yourself this: will you give your new game to the asshole that keeps one of your best games hostage? At best you will get a PC port.
Nintendo own Bayonetta 2 copyright, but doesn't own the Duskbloods
That means Duskbloods is ending up multiplat
So we aren't getting another non-pvp focused game for at least 3 years. Probably longer
if you think this means they will port it to Sony
They have no say on it because it's not their game
shin megami tensei v
Show me.
retards actually thought anyone could afford a Fromsoftware full exclusive
In the year of our Lord 3 AER (after Elden Ring)
retards
Triangle Strategy
TW101's eventual rerelease as a multiplat was the result of its rights essentially being traded for Astral Chain's
Correct, and since Nintendo doesn't have any rights on The Duskbloods to begin with, Duskbloods will hit multiplatform after its exclusivity deal expires
