“I feel frustrated,” Miyazaki told his video game therapist and our reporter Greg Matthews, “because The Duskbloods is releasing this year, and we still don’t have a scheduled release date.”
“I felt for sure that we would let everyone know when it’s releasing at the latest Nintendo Direct, but even though it’s mere months from 2027, much to my surprise and chagrin, we didn’t have anything to share.”
“I’ve been speculating about a Halloween release date, but on the other hand, we usually don’t release a game so close to announcing the date, so that might be off the table now. It seems like all we have is conjecture.”
“We usually don’t delay games either, with the exception of Elden Ring, which we only delayed for a month. On the other hand, Elden Ring Tarnished Edition for the Nintendo Switch 2 was delayed substantially, and we are most likely releasing The Duskbloods for the Switch, so maybe it has something to do with that.”
“On the other hand, and this is also only conjecture, but maybe it’s really releasing soon and we just aren’t saying anything until Fire Emblem releases. Who is to say?”
How many hands does Miyazaki have?
