From Software has announced that their up and coming game, Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, will be even harder than their previous titles.
The Dark Souls series is famed for its harsh difficulty and brutal gameplay, and is responsible for the majority of all controllers that were ever thrown at a wall.
When Sekiro was announced at E3 this year many were wondering whether it could replicate what the Dark Souls series achieved, and to the fans delight it might be even harder than they could have imagined.
From Software told GameSpot that it will "probably [be] even more challenging than previous From games," and that "the level of enjoyment is going to really vary and be very broad from player to player."
We're not quite sure how that is possible but we can't wait to find out, plus we would really love to know what he defines as "enjoyment."
Game director Hidetaka Miyazaki continued: "If you are that player who likes to take their time and carefully piece things together and learn the enemies' weaknesses and positioning, and observe everything, you're going to have a great time.
"It's that sense of discovery as you explore the three-dimensional maps--you're going to find something, maybe a new prosthetic tool that makes you think, 'Hey, why don't I use this against that enemy?' When that clicks and when it works, that's going to be the sense of satisfaction for that player.
"The other [player] who just likes to rush in there, go katana-on-katana and feel that blade-to-blade, blow-by-blow gameplay, they're going to feel that intensity. They're going to get that really high level challenge that's probably even more challenging than previous From games."
Sekiro was revealed during the Microsoft Xbox press conference at this year's E3 event, and will be published by Activision. It will also come to the PS4 and PC, with a release date set to be early 2019. Will you be giving this game a try, or does the cost of a new controller not seem worth it to you?
