Customers are saying

Customers have good things to say about the gameplay, story, action sequences, and controls of Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice. However, some players find the game's difficulty challenging, citing a steep learning curve and demanding boss fights as potential drawbacks. A few also mentioned frame rate inconsistencies. Overall, the positive feedback on the core gameplay mechanics outweighs the concerns regarding difficulty.

    Can be fun but not for me

    I loved Bloodborne and Demon's Souls but this game is not working for me. I am not digging the combat and the boss fights aren't fun to me. When I beat a boss, I feel like I cheesed them more than actual fought them World can look pretty but I was expecting something else than what I got, namely I wanted more spectacle and fantasy and less grounded.

    The graphics are beautiful but this game is no joke. It takes time, dedication, and lots of mistakes but the story is very evolved. I don't recommend it for the short of patience. But if you have someone good at strategy and loves a challenge, this game is it.

    Ever since getting the game on launch I have been overcome with rage quitting mixed with satisfaction. Despite that I still loved the game more than the actual dark souls. Sekiro is definitely a character I could get by

    This is a awesome game that make you feel like a awesome Shinobi!! A much better game than bloodborne because you move so fast and dangerous. The music is amazing and graphics are second to none. This is my game of the year right now, it’s will be hard to beat this game!!!!

    I can come to terms that although I did not like this game very much, I can still appreciate and respect that it is a very well put together game with thought out combat mechanics that do take a lot, and I mean a lot of focus and attention to grasp. I wanted to enjoy this game as much as Bloodborne, but just couldn't find the enjoyment in the world and game play that I did in that game.

    i'm a huge fan of the souls series. i beat those games and bloodborne. i think sekiro is too hard. it's a beautiful game. and fun. but i put it away after beating the first few bosses after getting stuck on the bull. i didn't want to give it too few stars, cuz it's probably just me that needs to get better at it. but i definitely think it should be more accessible.

    Fun but frustrating

    Like any FromSoft game, this one is great but very frustrating at times. Sekiro plays like the old Tenchu games. But throw out everything you know about combat with a FromSoft game when you play this. If you play it like any Dark Souls game, it will punish you heavily.

    Sekiro is one of the best game. However is not for everybody. If you don't like hard games this is not for you. this is for those who suffer playing old school games. You will be happy every time you pass a boss in this games.

    Another From Classic

    From hits it out of the park again with another classic! Some advice: DON'T PLAY THIS LIKE DARK SOULS! This game requires a vastly different approach to combat. Trying to roll your way through the game will work about as well as a shield-heavy strategy in Bloodborne.

    Game of the Year?!?!

    Potentially at the moment it can be considered the game of the year! Difficult game to play from the creators of Bloodbourne and Demon Souls games. What makes the game great is the faster speed compared to the games before it and the setting that it takes place in!

    Awesome game but it's very difficult. If you don't have patience this is not the game for you. If you only like picking up games for 30 minutes and then dojng something else, this is not the game for you. But if you put the time in this game is very rewarding!

    I went into this game never playing a From Software title but the setting and gameplay i saw looked fantastic. Unfortunately this title is just much too hard for anyone not familiar or willing to put the hours and countless deaths into this game. It's just my personal experience, but this game is more frustrating than it is fun.

    Amazing graphics, pretty good story and the mechanics are just fantastic. It was a little challenging at first as I’m not familiar with this sort of gameplay but I quickly adapted and it grew on me. Would definitely recommend !
