Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice
Released: 2019 — API: DirectX 11 — Engine: Souls Engine
The Japanese Sengoku Period meets magic and fantasy in Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, a love letter to games such as "Tenchu." You play as Wolf, a shinobi who seeks to avenge a rival Samurai clan that has attacked and kidnapped his lord. Sekiro follows the theme of other From Software titles, featuring high difficulty and a long learning curve, but will reward you accordingly. Based on a proprietary cross-platform engine, the game takes advantage of DirectX 11 and is moderately taxing on your machine.
