The stunning 'Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice' is 'Dark Souls' as a Kurosawa film

There is something so beautifully fitting about From Software entering the pantheon of Japanese artists who have tackled the legacy and violence of the samurai legend.

The acclaimed creators of Dark Souls and Bloodborne elevated calculating, highly technical video game violence to new heights, creating a new sub-genre in the process. One cannot overstate the influence of From's uniquely ruthless and macabre rules around in-game death, in which you have to return to your corpse to hang on to progress you've made, and brutally unforgiving combat.
