New Blood Interactive and 68k Studios have officially announced that Dungeons of Dusk, their eagerly anticipated turn-based dungeon crawling RPG, will launch on both Nintendo Switch and the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2.
The release is slated for 2026, marking a significant expansion for the developer as they target Nintendo's current and next-generation hardware platforms.
Dungeons of Dusk is rooted within the celebrated universe of the cult classic first-person shooter, DUSK, but introduces a bold new direction through traditional RPG mechanics and strategic, turn-based combat.
The game is set chronologically between the episodes of the original shooter, providing fans with fresh narrative context while delivering an entirely distinct gameplay experience. According to representatives from New Blood Interactive and 68k Studios, Dungeons of Dusk is designed for both veterans of dungeon crawlers and newcomers alike.
The core campaign features more than 30 levels, offering players robust character progression, interactions with non-playable characters (NPCs), and a deepened lore that connects back to the shooters' origins.
In addition to the main campaign, Dungeons of Dusk introduces an endless arena mode where players can test their endurance, a boss rush mode that sharpens tactical skills, and a survival mode aimed at those seeking the ultimate challenge.
The development team emphasizes the addition of both new and familiar enemies, ensuring long-time DUSK fans will encounter classic adversaries alongside innovative threats. A spokesperson from the development team explained, "Dungeons of Dusk aims to honor the legacy of DUSK while creating a unique RPG experience.
We’re excited to bring this world to Nintendo platforms, providing fans with engaging mechanics and memorable challenges." The announcement was accompanied by an official trailer, offering a first look at gameplay, environments, and key features.
Both New Blood Interactive and 68k Studios have garnered attention for their creative approaches to retro-inspired genres, with DUSK having received critical acclaim across multiple platforms since its initial launch. As the 2026 release date approaches, fans can expect further updates, including additional gameplay footage and more details about how Dungeons of Dusk will utilize Nintendo Switch 2’s hardware capabilities.
The title will be available via the Nintendo eShop, further expanding the publishers’ presence on the platform.
