Questionable Rumor re: The Duskbloods

Regarding recent The Duskbloods rumor, I cannot locate the Chinese source claimed by the YouTuber.

Screenshot from the YT video that kicked off the recent Duskbloods rumor: 黑夜君临的DLC【被遗忘的游魂】接下来应该 【就是新角色的介绍映像,以及最终上线宣传片。希望之后就能轮到《黄昏血族》开始放消息,据我所知,黄昏血族的立项时间甚至早于 《只狼》发售前的宣发期,而且是目前所有 FromSoftware游戏中最花时间做GamePlay玩法验证的项目。虽然是PVEVP,但有很多他们自认创新的元素,或许又能像只狼那样给不少 游戏开发者提供灵感。 The next thing for NR DLC should be the trailers for the 2 new characters, followed by the final launch trailer. After that, I hope it's finally time for DB to start dropping news. From what I know, this project was greenlit even earlier than the marketing period before Sekiro's release, and it is the FromSoftware title that has spent the longest time purely on gameplay prototyping and validation among all their games so far. Although it's PvEvP, it reportedly contains many innovative elements that the team themselves are very proud of-maybe it will once again provide inspiration to a lot of game developers, just like Sekiro did.

If someone who can read the language is unable to verify its veracity, did any VG news outlets and influencers reporting this as a fact even attempt to check?

And doesn’t the claim of a “journalist” repeatedly leaking prerelease info strike fanciful to anyone?

The YouTuber has a history of making Islamophobic and antisemitic comments. It’s disappointing that Vice and many others platformed the person just because of an interesting sounding FromSoftware rumor.
