Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice



Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice^[ is an upcoming action-adventure video game developed by FromSoftware and published by Activision. The game is scheduled to be released for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One in early 2019. The game follows a shinobi named Sekiro as he attempts to take revenge on a samurai who attacked him and kidnapped his lord.

In Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice players take on the role of the "one-armed wolf", a disgraced and disfigured warrior rescued from the brink of death. Bound to protect a young lord who is the descendant of an ancient bloodline, they become the target of many vicious enemies, including the dangerous Ashina clan. When the young lord is captured, nothing will stop the wolf from embarking on a perilous quest to regain honor, not even death itself.

Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice is an upcoming action-adventure game played from a third-person view.Although compared to FromSoftware's Souls series, the game features no role-playing game elements, such as character creation, classes, and equipment upgrades, as well as having no multiplayer elements. Rather than attacking to whittle an enemy's health points, combat in Sekiro revolves around using a katana to attack their poise and balance instead, which eventually leads to an opening that allows for a single killing blow. The game also features stealth elements, allowing players to immediately eliminate enemies if they can get in range undetected. In addition, the player character has the ability to use various tools to assist with combat and exploration, such as a grappling hook and a torch. If the player character dies, they are revived on the spot instead of respawning at earlier checkpoints.
