Melty Blood: Twi-Lumina Hits Consoles April 22, 2027

Melty Blood: Twi-Lumina is set to launch on April 22, 2027 for PlayStation 5, Switch 2, PlayStation 4, and Xbox. Here's what we know so far.

Ready for another round of chaotic anime fighters? Melty Blood: Twi-Lumina finally has a release date, and it's landing on April 22, 2027.

That's right, the next entry in the long-running Melty Blood series is officially headed to PlayStation 5, Switch 2, PlayStation 4, and Xbox. So whether you've already jumped into the current console generation or you're still rocking your trusty PS4, you'll be able to get in on the action.

The Melty Blood franchise has been a staple of the fighting game community for years, blending fast-paced combat with a cast of characters drawn from the broader Type-Moon universe. Twi-Lumina looks to continue that tradition, and the fact that it's coming to so many platforms means more players than ever will get a chance to throw down.

It's worth noting that the Switch 2 is on that list, which lines up with the growing expectation that Nintendo's next console will be well established by 2027. Seeing a niche fighting game confirmed for it this early is a good sign for the platform's third-party support.

As for what else Twi-Lumina will bring to the table, details are still rolling in. We know the launch window, we know the platforms, and that's about it for now. Expect more info on the roster, modes, and any potential rollback netcode in the months ahead.

For fighting game fans, 2027 is shaping up to be a busy year. Having a concrete date this far out gives the community something to circle on the calendar, and it gives developer French-Bread plenty of time to polish things up before launch.
