The Duskbloods' winged rat "elderly gentleman" was actually FromSoftware's rare attempt at something "Nintendo-esque" and "cute"

FromSoftware's The Duskbloods stirred up a lot of conversation when it was revealed as a Nintendo Switch 2 exclusive, partly because of that unexpected partnership, partly because of how it's a multiplayer-focused game, and partly because of the speculation that comes from showing off a mysterious rat thing at the end of your trailer. We now know that the winged rat creature is actually the studio's best attempt at doing something "Nintendo-esque" for a change. Cute creatures aren't exactly what you think of when it.
