Well we don't know if they change their mind about the dual wielding, something like a sword and a dagger would be nice to see at least (rapier and dagger ).
Dual wielding is indeed a thing. It sticks in memory because of the number of times we have people during livestreams keep asking "Can I dual wield shields!?!" and how patient they have been in the answers to the same softball served up every time.
But to clarify, I also remember them saying that you not be able to mix and match. The cost and effort of animating all possible combinations turned out to screw up their production line. It was in response to someone wanting a sword and dagger combo that was a nimble dancer in combat if I remember right. @Jahlon may have clarity on this, or he might just refer us all to Google.

Number two: There is no two-weapon style. Swords are restricted to a sword and shield, single one-handed sword, or a two-handed sword.
Dual wielding
Dual wielding will be permitted for one handed weapons.[47]
- Shields cannot be dual wielded.
- Great swords probably can't be dual wielded.[48]
