Publisher Activision and developer FromSoftware announced that their popular souls-like game Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice just reached a major milestone, selling over 10 million units worldwide.
Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice initially launched for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC via the Steam client on March 22, 2019.
Overview of the game:
Carve your own clever path to vengeance in the critically acclaimed adventure from developer FromSoftware, creators of 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.
Explore late 1500s Sengoku Japan, a brutal period of constant life and death conflict, as you come face to face with larger than life foes in a dark and twisted world. Unleash an arsenal of deadly prosthetic tools and powerful ninja abilities while you blend stealth, vertical traversal, and visceral head to head combat in a bloody confrontation.
Here’s a brief snippet from our review of the game:
“Overall, Sekiro has been a wonderful experience. I’ve died more times that I could count but the feeling of satisfaction after killing that boss is surreal and is an acknowledgement that you are getting better at the game. It’s something veteran soulsborne gamers will appreciate but is also a departure from old habits and tactics that requires the player to master a new set of skills and approach to the game and I think this is where Sekiro really shines. The bosses in the game are spectacular and there are a couple of very interesting and creative fights that is just a testament to the genius of Hidetaka Miyazaki.”
