The Garden of Quiet Living reached cumulative sales of 200,000 units in Japan within one month of launch, prompting its publisher, Nippon Ichi Software, to raise its full-year outlook. As an all-new title for the next-generation Switch 2, FromSoftware’s The Duskbloods is scheduled for release in 2026 and features distinctive elements including eight-player online co-op battles and a vampire-themed setting.
The Garden of Quiet Living, a new horror-meets-slow-life title developed by Nippon Ichi Software, reached cumulative sales of 200,000 units in Japan in roughly one month after its release at the end of July. The publisher subsequently raised its full-year earnings forecast. The protagonist begins a new life in Kagatsu Village, where nighttime exploration and the mysteries surrounding the village’s rules form the core of the story.
Meanwhile, The Duskbloods, an all-new title that FromSoftware is developing for the Switch 2, is an action RPG built around online battles for up to 8 players. It is set amid a struggle between vampires over virtue. Although the game system is complex, network test feedback has praised it as becoming more enjoyable as players gain a deeper understanding of it. Unless it is delayed, it could become a major holiday-season release.
