Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice Reviews
While Sekiro certainly shares DNA with the previous Soulsborne games, fundamental sword-fighting battle mechanic changes leave it feeling fresh. However, as the old saying goes, when you live by the sword, you die by the sword, and players need to be aware that this is a game that will see you die many, many times.
Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice is another great game from FromSoftware that changes the usual formula and creates something new and great on a familiar foundation.

Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice is a welcome change for the developer solidifying FromSoftware's skills and expertise in tackling bigger challenges and improving on past successes. A superb effort all around; whether it's the intricate combat system, the world and how you explore it, or the relentless challenge by the world and its bosses, this is an epic journey that never lets go of you. 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.

Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice innovates to the point where people who are tired of the same old song and dance will find new mysteries to master, but still maintains that strong marriage of world building and sense of pride garnered from besting taxing conflicts.
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.
You don't play Sekiro, you learn it. When you are ready for it, you can expect one of the best action adventure games in recent years

An outstanding game that take the esence on the Soulsborne games and brings it forward to make one of the most compelling game experiences that we have played in a while.

Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice is a captivating experience given its setting and lore. There are so many mysteries to uncover, and I can't wait to play it even more.
Sekiro obviously piggybacks on the Souls series, but doesn't stop there. It was a risky move, but From Software proved once again that there’s no match for them. The exposition of the game world and its rules are surprisingly easy, but the game quickly kicks you in the teeth with the perfect combat system. An instant classic – once again.

Sekiro refines the Dark Souls gameplay, adding stealth mechanics and a perfect combat system based on evading and parring attacks. The japanese setting, art style and open map design complete an amazing game, which, again, can be too difficult for some players

Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice really shows why From Software is the current king of making brutally challenging yet rewarding games. It looks amazing, has a more focussed narrative than what we've seen before and the combat is something quite unique and different. It might not be everybody's cup of tea, but once you get used to the game's rhythm and mechanics, it becomes an absolute blast to play.
There is no satisfaction in immortality. Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice proves its thesis by matching the resolve of its protagonist with the potential of its player in a performance choreographed by agonizing lessons and industrious rehearsals. When it's showtime presentation seems instinctive and proficiency feels powerful. Sekiro demands immense competence, but, once its needs are met, the payoff is irresistible.
Sekiro is an electrifying power trip that demands a lot from the player, but if you let it grip you it will be hard to pull its rickety wooden hand from your wrist. Every time I put words to paper I’m emboldened once more to head back in there. I’m inspired and terrified thinking about the friends I’ve made, bereft with Rot Essence, praying for me to surpass the next fork in the road so I can bring them back to life.
Without fear of being wrong I can say that Sekiro is not only one of the best titles of this generation, but it is one of the best we have seen in many years and will be remembered as one of the great jewels of the decade.

Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice easily cements itself as one of the best modern action/adventure games of the generation.
Because under Sekiro's hard surface there is one of the most refined and rewarding combat systems of recent years. A combat system that after each completed battle gives a great, complete feeling where few games even come close.

Difficult, challenging and with a familiar essence but at the same time, completely renewed in its mechanics. And with this game, Miyazaki once again puts the player to the test with what only he knows how to do, maximizing that feeling of reward by finishing an area that has put you on the ropes.

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!
