Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, the next game by From Software, was understandably among this year’s Tokyo Game Show highlights. The official PlayStation channel has posted a new gameplay walkthrough (captured on PlayStation 4 Pro) over the weekend, including a boss fight with the ‘Corrupted Monk’. You can find the footage embedded below.
The gaming market always has room for another unique From Software action game and what better way to celebrate a new take on the Souls genre than with a new title from Miyazaki-san himself. The faster combat (swordplay looks even more fluid than Bloodborne) will surely lend itself to some intense duels between honorable men on the battlefield and should be a welcome change to my typical spear-and-shield approach of a Souls game. If there’s but one negative to end talking about Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, it’s that 2019 can’t come fast enough!
As a reminder, Sekiro is due on March 22nd, 2019 for PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
Carve your own clever path to vengeance in an all-new adventure from developer From Software, creators of bloodborne and the dark souls series. In Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice you are 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, you become the target of many vicious enemies, including the dangerous Ashina clan. When the young lord is captured, nothing will stop you on a perilous quest to regain your honor, not even death itself.
