FromSoftware Owns The Duskbloods IP, PC Release Is Possible Unlike Bloodborne

Expert Verified By

Hopefully, It Won't End Up Like Bloodborne Did!

Story Highlight
  • FromSoftware recently announced Duskbloods as a Switch 2 exclusive.
  • Following the announcement, fans believed that the title would not receive a PC port and would instead end up like Bloodborne.
  • Since FromSoftware owns the Duskbloods IP and not Nintendo, the possibility of a PC Port remains high.

FromSoftware recently announced that their latest title, Duskbloods, will be an exclusive release for the Switch 2. Following the announcement, fans of the studio have been really furious, as they believe the title will end up just like Bloodborne and will not be released on other platforms.

However, it appears that won’t be the case as the Duskbloods IP is owned by FromSoftware, unlike Bloodborne, which Sony owns. So, there is a possibility that we will actually see a PC version of the title sooner than we think. 

Why it matters: Since Sony owns the Bloodborne IP, FromSoftware cannot interfere with the PC port, as Sony will always have the final verdict.

As seen above, the official website of Duskbloods has the FromSoftware trademark on the bottom, suggesting that the Japanese publisher owns the IP.

Moreover, the trademark filed for Duskbloods further confirms that, indeed, FromSoftware owns the IP. This suggests that fans could expect the title to be released on PC.

Since fans still blame the developers for not releasing the PC port of Bloodborne, Studio lead Hidetaka Miyazaki confirmed long ago that he was not the one to decide whether there should be a PC port; the decisions could only be made by Sony. 

The Duskbloods Looks Awfully Similar To Bloodborne

We will likely get Duskbloods on PC and other platforms soon after its release, but that is a long way to go, as the title is expected to be released in 2026. So, PC fans can expect to enjoy the title around 2027 or 2028.

Still, waiting for a year or two would not be as disappointing as waiting for over a decade for a title. There is still no news about the PC port of Bloodborne, but the game has already been made playable on PC thanks to the ShadPS4 emulation.

However, are you excited about the Duskbloods? Do you think the title will be released on other platforms, or will it have the same destiny as Bloodborne? Share your thoughts in the comments or join the Tech4Gamers forums.
