FromSoftware Ends Duskbloods Test Early
FromSoftware ends the first day of The Duskbloods network test early after widespread login failures.
The update
FromSoftware has closed the first scheduled session of The Duskbloods network test early after widespread connectivity issues prevented players from logging in. The studio announced the closure on its official X account, stating that “game server issues” barred access and that it would share future testing schedules at a later date. Players were met with error messages like “Failed to log in to The Duskbloods game server” while stuck on the title screen.
Why it matters
This early closure highlights significant instability in the game’s online infrastructure, which is a critical component for the upcoming PvPvE title. The widespread login failures suggest that the servers may not be fully prepared for the high player volume expected during the weekend’s testing periods, potentially impacting player confidence ahead of the full release.
What to watch
FromSoftware has promised to continue working on server improvements. The studio has not yet confirmed whether the remaining test sessions scheduled for the weekend will be impacted. Readers should monitor official channels for updates on the status of future testing periods and any potential rescheduling.
