Update 2PM BST: FromSoftware has ended today's Duskbloods network test early due to connectivity problems. In a statement on the official FromSoftware X account, the company apologized for any inconvenience caused and promised to share future testing schedules soon. The testing session was set to last until around 5PM BST but was closed approximately three hours early. There are still testing periods scheduled throughout the weekend and into Monday, so players are hopeful the server issue will be resolved soon.
When the network test began at 12PM BST, players started reporting connectivity issues on the title screen, preventing them from entering matches. This suggests a broader problem with server connectivity. FromSoftware responded on the game's X account with advice for players experiencing instability, recommending they get closer to their router or use an ethernet cable for a more stable connection.
Unfortunately, this basic troubleshooting step hasn't helped those already experiencing server connectivity issues, leaving players frustrated as the testing phase continues.
