FromSoftware Has Closed Down the First Day of The Duskblood's Network Test Early Due to Connectivity Issues

FromSoftware said it will improve the servers after 0 players could log in for hours during the first closed test.

  • On Friday, FromSoftware ended the first The Duskbloods Closed Network Test early, citing persistent game server issues that prevented players from accessing the vampire-themed PvPvE action game.
  • Players attempting to join faced persistent "Failed to log in to The Duskbloods game server" error messages that repeated for hours, preventing anyone from entering matches during the test window.
  • FromSoftware advised using a wired connection, cautioning that "You may experience instability depending on your network environment," while directing affected testers to Nintendo Support for additional help.
  • Future testing remains scheduled throughout the weekend into Monday, with the developer apologizing and stating, "We will continue to work on improving the servers and will announce future schedules at a later date."
  • Running through Monday, the test serves as an early preview for The Duskbloods, which is scheduled to launch on Nintendo Switch 2 later this year despite today's connectivity setback.
