The game emphasizes precise sword combat, stealth, and mobility, replacing traditional RPG elements with a posture-based dueling system.
Released 22 March 2019 for Xbox One, Google Stadia, PC (Microsoft Windows) and PlayStation 4 by FromSoftware, published by Activision. Rated 18 by USK, MA 15+ by ACB. About 41.5 hours to beat, 53 hours for everything.
Story
The game takes place in a reimagined late-16th-century Sengoku-period Japan. At the end of the Sengoku era, warlord Isshin Ashina stages a bloody coup and seizes the land of Ashina. During this time, a nameless orphan is adopted by the wandering shinobi Owl, who names the orphan "Wolf".
Twenty years later, the Ashina clan is on the brink of collapse due to a combination of the now elderly Isshin having fallen ill and the clan's enemies steadily closing in from all sides. Desperate to find a way to prevent the fall of his clan, Isshin's grandson Genichiro captures the Divine Heir Kuro, in hopes of using his "Dragon Heritage" to create an immortal army.
