Expert Verified By

Nintendo's Feedback And Ideas Were Incredibly Valuable To FromSoftware!

Story Highlight
  • Nintendo helped FromSoftware during parts of The Duskbloods development.
  • The support was tied to player onboarding and making the game easier to understand early on.
  • Nintendo was also very excited about The Duskbloods’ main concept, so the two teams decided to collaborate.

FromSoftware has finally shared more details on The Duskbloods. The latest previews also reveal how FromSoftware and Nintendo’s unexpected partnership came to be, which eventually led to exclusivity for the title.

As per director Hidetaka Miyazaki, Nintendo was more than just a publisher for the title.

Why it matters: FromSoftware has typically collaborated with PlayStation extensively in the past, but the gaming giant’s partnership with Nintendo has many excited for what is to come.

The Duskbloods Is Coming Soon

Speaking to IGN, Hidetaka Miyazaki confirmed that Nintendo helped FromSoftware during parts of The Duskbloods’ development, particularly around how the game introduces players to its systems.

The director admitted that FromSoftware has traditionally forced players to figure things out for themselves. However, Nintendo’s experience brought a level of accessibility to the experience that didn’t exist before.

Hidetaka Miyazaki also spoke about Nintendo’s excitement for The Duskbloods, which became the core reason behind the team pursuing exclusivity for this release. He explained that Nintendo’s feedback and ideas have been quite helpful throughout the process of making the game.

I think having someone who can constantly give us feedback, support, additional ideas, having this relationship is definitely key.

Anyhow, the first previews for The Duskbloods are now available for gamers to watch, and many are calling the title one of FromSoftware’s most unique works yet.

What do you think about the game and this partnership so far? Let’s discuss in the comments below.
