FromSoftware is launching a closed network test for The Duskbloods next month. This event gives players a chance to experience the game's multiplayer systems before the official release. It also helps the developers verify server stability and balance adjustments under live conditions.
Multiplayer sign-ups open for August 21 to 23 testing window
The test runs from August 21 to 23, 2026. Players can join matches with up to eight participants at the same time. This cooperative structure allows the team to stress-test server load and multiplayer connectivity.
Sign-ups are currently open for those interested in participating. The test windows are scheduled in Pacific Daylight Time. Players can join on August 21 from 3:00 a.m. to 7:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. The next day offers a single window from 11:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. The final day repeats the August 21 schedule.
We looked at FromSoftware Duskbloods New Trailer and Nintendo in our earlier Fromsoftware coverage. The primary goals for this test include evaluating game balance and server performance. Participants will help identify technical issues that need fixing before launch.
