Back in 2019, FromSoftware, creators of the wildly successful action RPG games Dark Souls, Bloodborne, Elden Ring, and Armored Core 6, put out Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice. A gruelling, historical take on the sort of formula established in its Souls series, Sekiro casts players as a defined character — a ninja called The Wolf — and explores the bloodsoaked landscape of late 16th century, Warring States era Japan through a revenge tale that includes, naturally, plenty of memorably tense boss fights. It’s also cheap to pick up a copy right now as Sekiro is currently discounted by 50% on Steam.
