FromSoftware's unannounced project codenamed 'FMC' is slated to launch in 2026

FromSoftware currently has quite a lot on its plate at the moment, as the developer is currently working on continuous new updates for the recently released Elden Ring: Nightreign, and the upcoming title The Duskbloods, which is headed exclusively to the Nintendo Switch 2. However, there is reportedly a third title in the works, and the studio is deep into its development.

According to a new report by MP1st, FromSoftware is currently working on a project codenamed "FMC," with the studio reportedly already being deep into the development of the title that, if it continues at this pace, will release sometime in 2026. Unfortunately, the codename doesn't reveal much about what the title could be about, but from previous FromSoftware games, we have learned that codenames starting with "F" typically relate to the Dark Souls or Armored Core series.

Souls series creator and president of FromSoftware, Hidetaka Miyazaki, said in the past that the Souls series was finished, meaning this new project isn't likely to be a sequel. However, that doesn't rule out the possibility of there being one. What is more likely, if this unannounced title is Souls-related, is that it's the long-rumored remaster of Dark Souls 3, as the first and second games within the franchise have already been remastered, so it just makes sense to remaster the third as well.
