Once again From software and legendary Director, Hidetaka Miyazaki proved that they're one of the best in the game Industry. Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice takes players to a wonderful, entertaining and also Challenging Adventure. Combat system is Great as always with Miyazaki. It's reasonably difficult to learn, and hard to master. Exploring is adequately rewarding, and boss fights are tough, but have their unqie weaknesses. Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice has inherited the DNA of the soulsborne and combined It with some interesting new elements. If you are a soulsborne fan, Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice Is definitely your game!

In each scenario, with each enemy, you learn something new. It is not for everyone, but the player who likes challenges, will taste it as it deserves. Do not fool yourself. Shadows do not die twice but many more.

With Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, FromSoftware tries to appeal to more gamers. Although Sekiro changes a lot of familiar elements from FromSoftware games like Bloodborne and Dark Souls, It is still a special game. Tree of skills, Technical gameplay, and outstanding technical and artistic visuals, are some of the strong aspects of the game. Things like strange AI in certain situations and repetitive enemies prevent the game to become a masterpiece.

From Software deserves a great deal of credit for clever level design that makes great use of Wolf's prosthetic arm and his great sense of mobility. It will be interesting to see if Sekiro has the same longevity and rabid fan devotion as the Souls games, but I can fully appreciate From Software taking some chances and doing something quite different as well.

Sekiro is a beautifully realized next step in the evolution of From Software's staple genre, but the renewed focus on combat mechanics and increased difficulty level might prove too much even for some Souls veterans. If you keep at it, however, the game's world, level design and story (not to mention the nicely done nods to previous Miyazaki games) make all the effort more than worthwhile.

If you're looking for a challenging game with blisteringly fast action that you'll have to work hard to conquer then Don't Think Twice.
