Souls-Like, Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice

FromSoftware once again struck gold with Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, proving they are the kings of the genre.

Taking place in a re-imagined version of the 16th century, the game puts players in the shoes of a nameless shinobi, seeking revenge on a clan samurai clan that attacked him and stole his lord.

Using stealth, exploration, and an emphasis on one on one encounters, Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice makes just about every battle feel like a boss fight. Even the lowliest of samurai could spell doom if the parrying and postures are just a little bit off.

When the actual boss fights do come, timing, patience, and repetition are required to take down many of the behemoths that make up the game.

Even when not in combat, the game is breathtaking, as its world, setting, and overall ambiance are one of a kind.
