  "account": "Hidetaka Miyazaki, president of FromSoftware, has clarified that the studio's recent release of two multiplayer games, Elden Ring: Nightreign and The Duskbloods, does not signify a shift away from singleplayer content. Speaking to IGN, Miyazaki stated that the two games are simply a coincidence and that FromSoftware remains focused on developing single-player titles as well. Miyazaki expressed enthusiasm for creating multiplayer games, noting that it was a fun change of pace for the team. However, he emphasized that this enthusiasm does not detract from the studio's dedication to single-player RPGs, which are their forte. Miyazaki acknowledged that working on multiplayer games can scratch the itch of innovation, but ultimately, the desire to create single-player experiences remains strong. Fans can look forward to future single-player games from FromSoftware, such as Sekiro 2, generating excitement for what's to come.",
