Sekiro Wiki Guide: Everything about Sekiro
The Sekiro Wiki covers everything about 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.
About Sekiro
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 the dark and twisted world of Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice. As a Shinobi, or ninja, you will unleash an arsenal of deadly prosthetic tools and powerful ninja abilities while you blend stealth, vertical traversal, and visceral head to head combat in bloody confrontations.
After being left for dead by the Ashina Clan, who kidnapped your young lord and severed your arm, you awake to find that a mysterious busshi (or Japanese sculptor) has replaced your arm with an incredible prosthetic, allowing you to use many ingenious gadgets and tools. The busshi dubs you Sekiro, the one-armed wolf and, armed with your katana and new prosthetic, your only goal is to rescue your lord and regain your honor.
Sekiro Directed by Miyazaki
“Collaborating with Activision on Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice has been a very exciting experience for us,” said Hidetaka Miyazaki, president and game director at FromSoftware. “With Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice many FromSoftware team members, including myself, are thrilled to be exploring themes of Sengoku Japan and ninja for the first time. We can’t wait for everyone to discover what’s in store for the game.”
Sekiro Gameplay
The game is directed by Hidetaka Miyazaki, and qualified as a third-person “action-adventure game with RPG elements“. The game’s protagonist plays the role of a hard-hearted warrior on a quest to rescue his young lord and who seeks revenge. His name is “Sekiro” or “One-Armed Wolf”. The game is set in Sengoku Japan – much as Nioh was, so you might want to brush up on your Sekigahara history or related lore.
Combat delivers many different ways to engage in each scenario, a feature which was touted as the cornerstone of the game. The addition of vertical traversal options brings a new perspective for FromSoftware’s fans to enjoy as they can now gain access to higher vantage points than they might be used to.

Lords of the Fallen is way better because it isn't a weeb anime game. I just wish Sekiro was just as epic as Lords of the Fallen, too bad Michael Zaki only make unepic video games. Not very cool of him :/

LOVE the combat in this game, it’s a dream come true really.
While I like many of the story elements, my input is:
All I wanna do is fight.
And I don’t wanna fight some blob monster that kills me with purple stuff.
I wanna fight steel on steel, again and again.
I don’t wanna be confused about where I am and what I’m doing, and have to look it up online and make a plan and keep track of stuff.
I wanna hit the storyline, and fight enemies again and again

Prosthetics are the worst part about this game, they’re all generally useless aside from a few niche situations per tool. And then firecrackers act as a universal stun that works on every enemy and breaks the game. This area of the game is more unpolished than ds2.

Just came here after finishing the whole dark souls series (can't play des and bb sadly cuz no ps4) so i need to ask this, are the pc controls well performed? Or it's another aberration like the ds2 ones

Stop playing this game like you would DS or BB and then complain that it's too hard

Finally a new story from software! The comvat is unique and i love it. Though ds3 is still my fav,this game almost takes that spot, my only nitpick is that its too short even wo shura ending. But anyway this game requires more skill than ds bcoz its not rpg w levelling but pure skill and requires one to learn and master its mechanics. 9.5/10

I love this game don't get me wrong I even completed it till ng+5 for the sake of achievements but I don't like the fact that the entire combat revolves around a single button press: L1. This type of combat don't make this game hard but shallow and boring. The bosses are aesthetically pleasing fights but if you narrow it down all you do is time the L1 and as long as you do so there is no real threat at all. Sure occasionally you have to jump to counter sweeps and dash for mikiri(even though you can parry it easily) but that's all there is to the combat, it just looks good but is mechanically inferior. Hell for being a shinobi you aren't even supposed to be mobile during boss fights(except for DoH and guardian ape) and ironically being mobile during the boss fights will only get you killed. Comparing Sekiro to games like dark souls, DMC, ninja Gaiden, nioh etc you will realize how shallow the combat really is. Maybe its just not my cup of tea its one of those games which beautifully follow the principle of easy to learn hard to master. I also want to point out the importance of rng in video games. As much as its hated its required to make the game interesting and fresh all the times. Sekiro on the other hand has no rng in it, once you complete a new game the enemy move sets will be stuck into your head like a nice poem and the challenge of fighting them ends there.

As someone who has played every souls game (Demons souls, Ds1-3, Bloodborne, and Sekiro) I have a tier list of all the souls games and wanted to share them
1)Dark souls 1- This is my first souls game like many and even without my nostalgic glasses this is the best souls game to date (In MY opinion) the music, bosses, and environment never let me down
2)Bloodborne)- The gothic horror, the beast who yearn for blood, and hentai tenti- I mean love craft creatures. This game was my second souls game and everything I said about DS1 can just be put here. That being said BB is weird, for how much I love playing it starting a new save can be boring and tedious
3)Demons souls and Dark souls3 - I played these games at the same time and I can never decide which one is better, I group them up together because both of them have great strengths and concerning flaws. Demons I can just have a ridiculous amount of healing items and Ds3 is just DS1 but new
4)Dark souls 2 and Sekiro- So this is where it gets concerning, I like Ds2 and I like shadows too...But both are very poor souls games. Sekiro is very very VERY boring on the 3rd playthrough, and Ds2 is just....well Ds2.The combat in both is subpar, story isn't something to be very interested in and just mechanics for both is sad to see....especially Sekiro. While all the skills are interesting and the arm functionality is cool, both are very poor gimmicks that could've been 10 times improved upon, also the reflect while very cool and the main part of Sekiro, is boring when mastered
Sorry for the end of the tier list. its just depressing of what Sekiro could've been, even with the free update its just slapping a bandied on a hole in a chest

I've beaten all the Soulsborne games. I'm not a great player but enjoyed the challenge and the sense of overcoming adversity. They were also rpg games that allowed you to tailor the game slightly to suit your play style, or simply grind and level up where difficulty got too much. Sadly this game offers none of that, you must play it their way or die and their way requires the reflexes of a fighter pilot as two hits and you're gone. The game will appeal to elite players wanting a supreme challenge and bragging rights, but if you're a bit more casual it will infuriate you.

I'm saying this as someone who beat every boss in DS3 and 1 without help: This game's just not fun. It's infuriating how weak Sekiro is! His dodge is complete **** and he does a cowering animation after he gets hit which allows enemies to combo him. He takes so much hitstun it's ridiculous. Bosses have every advantage over you and require you to do only one specific thing that will work at the right time. You're just getting little one hit chips of damage on them. Their animations don't even match their hitboxes. Try to jump over a thrust? Too bad; even though it shows they missed you still get hit because you HAD to Mikiri counter it. And don't like the sword combat? Too bad; you can't create a different build. Now I'm at the point where I can either grind the corrupt monk or Genichiro for hours and I don't want to do it! Which sucks because exploring the world is so fun. But they throw bosses everywhere. It's completely reliant on you liking to grind unfair bosses and liking the very limited options of combat. And I don't! Honestly DS3 was just a much better game.

Only downside i have is that I wish there was some more ninjutsu's in the game for more ways to use enemies for your own advantage. like I told my friend one time where I wished there was a ninjutsu where you set the person you backstabbed a ticking blood bomb and depending if he's near other enemies, he runs to them yelling “Help me! Help me!” and then blows up near them, either killing them or raising their posture bar high depending on how strong they are.

The guide needs serious help. This should be the absolute Bible for this game and it's nowhere even close to being complete.
This game is too easy compared to dark souls... runthrough with 0 deaths... not even twice! Even kirby on gameboy is more difficult.

To get through phase 1 fast attack from hidden forest side, use akos sugar and divine confetti jump down and attack and then mash floating passage, it wrecks his health and hes slow to react at the start of the fight

I'm baffled seeing people here saying that Dark Souls 2 is better than any other of the souls games. I mean, WTF?? DS2 is a bad game, period. DS2 has bad mechanics, period. DS2 is boring, uninteresting and ugly. DS2 is not special, guys!!

Dark souls 2 Is way better than Sekiro big boo's to this mess of pictures you call a game From Software you have failed

Difficulty wise it moves at Bloodborne-difficulty. The fighting mechanic threw me off with some bosses (when i didn´t understand it) clocking in at more than 20 tries and a couple of hours. After getting it it certainly gets easier but I would not say that it is ever really in your favour. The stealth mechanic feels rounded yet wonky as sometimes the distances enemies notice you vary even in the same enemy type(or i feel that way at least aye) Intriguing and wonderfully designed world with quite a few moments where I just had to run away scared, because I either had no heal, posture or straight out guts to fight some people :D Enemies, more often than not, can´t hit each other which I think is a good thing as some enemies are so incredibly powerful, they´d just onehit their minions. From Software always had a hand with incredibly hard Games and yes, this may be different but I would go so far as to say this is pretty much the game of the Year already.

Thank you for another great game, From Software!. You never disappoint us!
Ninjustu Techniques should be added next to Combat Skills under the Character Information tab.
Im getting close to the end of this game. I so far love it. The world is beautiful, difficulty well balanced. I personally found this to be the easiest of the souls style games, but that in regards still makes it downright brutal and hard. The combat is truely a breath of fresh air, even though it does not feel fully realized with enemy variety. It personally does not blow me away as much as Bloodborne or Dark souls 3, but is another amazing title from from software. Definitely a solid 9/10

gosh I love fextralife. without the beginners video I would died 1000 times without really understanding how it affects the world with the penalties. Now I only need to git gud and forget the way I played DS or BB because now.. the***** is real!
Regarding the 'About Sekiro' part: I never heard the busshi referred to the Wolf as Sekiro, the first time the Sekiro name was actually used was when the Wolf met the Ashina Tengu. The Tengu named the Wolf as Sekiro.
Those warning kanjis and sound must be disbled, both irritating.
