- An unannounced multi-platform title is in development at FromSoftware and is expected to launch as early as 2026.
- This game, codenamed “FMC,” could be a new entry in the Dark Souls or Armored Core series.
- This project is entirely different from the Duskbloods.
FromSoftware surprised everyone this year when the Japanese developer announced a multiplayer exclusive for the Nintendo Switch 2, a completely new direction for the company. Fans were taken aback by this new approach, despite the developer’s promise to continue working on more single-player games.
Now, as it turns out, FromSoftware has a new project deep in development that is set to launch as early as next year, in addition to The Duskbloods.
Why it matters: The release of two games by one of the most influential developers in 2026 is a positive sign for the industry’s efficiency.
According to a report from MP1st, an unannounced project from the Japanese developer is in the advanced stages of production and will launch on multiple platforms. The article also reveals that barring any delay, this mystery game could release as early as 2026, meaning FromSoftware will release 2 new titles next year.
Furthermore, the report speculates about the nature of this project based on its codename “FMC.” Historically, only Dark Souls and Armored Core titles are codenamed with the letter “F.” Therefore, some are speculating that this new multi-platform game could belong to one of these two franchises.
Considering how Armored Core 6 just came out in 2023, fans are betting this unannounced multi-platform offering might be a new Dark Souls title. However, FromSoftware has previously released side projects and spinoffs in the Armored Core franchise shortly after launching a mainline entry, so it’s anyone’s guess.
Another thing to note is that the codename of The Duskbloods is not known, but the source confirms that these two projects are entirely different, as one is a multi-platform offering while the other is going to be exclusive.
In addition, it’s not apparent if this will be a single-player or multiplayer title, but fans are hoping FromSoftware reverts to tradition.
