The new game The Duskbloods from FromSoftware may never make it beyond Nintendo Switch 2, and everything suggests that this is not a coincidence. The studio has been collaborating with Nintendo for years on projects that remained exclusive to their platforms. In this case, Nintendo is not only supporting the project but was also involved from the idea stage, which significantly increases the chances of full exclusivity.
The history of collaboration between FromSoftware and Nintendo shows that such games practically never make it to other platforms
Looking at earlier projects by FromSoftware created for Nintendo, a clear pattern emerges games remain on one platform and do not receive ports. This applies to both older titles like Lost Kingdoms and other lesser-known productions on the DS. A similar model can be seen in other collaborations with Nintendo, such as the Bayonetta series, where funding a project meant exclusivity. This suggests that if Nintendo assists in production, the game is likely to remain within their ecosystem permanently.

At this moment, everything indicates one thing The Duskbloods may be a full-fledged, permanent exclusive for Switch 2. If history repeats itself, players on other platforms may not see this game.
