As some were expecting, From Software's new game has been revealed at Microsoft's E3 2018 press conference. It's called Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, and looks to be the studio's take on samurai.
It appears to adopt a similar tone to that found in Bloodborne, though is a little more colourful and little less bleak. Interestingly, Activision is on publishing duties this time around. It's looking like another great action RPG in the From Software mould.

Interesting, nice powerbomb at 1:26.
From Software game, published by Activision and showed on Xbox Conference? Weird o_O
Is this the only kind of game From Software can make?
It looks good, but it's too similar to Nioh for my liking.
Disappointed.
So... nioh copied From, and now From is copying Nioh?
That game looks amazing.game of the show easily.👍😱💕💖💞💓💛💗💜💚❤.wow.shadows die twice looks like onimusha.incredible.wowwww.word up son
@IanDavid who cares. The game of the show for me.word up son
Don't know if I really want another Souls-style game. I'm almost as tired of seeing them as seeing Battle Royale games.
But...but... I wanted Bloodborne 2 😭
Wow metro exodus is coming on February 22.same day as as anthem.days gone.word up son
so no bloodborne 2.
Not interested in this genre. I wish From would make something else for a change.
It looks good, any game made by From Software is day one for me, but I would prefer Bloodborne 2.
Looked OK but still looked like Dark Souls in a Japanese setting - Nioh looks more interesting and varied but things could change...
I'm in if the difficulty isn't "wasting my time". After playing god of war I think I'm done with soul games like difficulty.
Nioh was ridiculously repetitive! It only had about 4 enemies 😂
@smelly_jr It seems they can only create great action RPGs... Can't wait to play a futuristic FPS made by From Software, a soccer game by NaughtyDog or a driving game by Arkane Studios!
Looks incredible. As for those complaining... by the time this releases, we'll have had six Soulsborne games by From in ten years, which is not an overwhelming number. And they are the best games out there.
@Tsurii Totally disagree, looks just like them but in a different setting — which is a good thing.
Praise!!
Huh, I didn't think they'd do the Samurai setting since Nioh has basically done that now.
Wonder if Ghost of Tsushima blows this away or is overshadowed...
@SlimDrizzyLamar Honestly thought it was Tenchu at first.
Looks a LOT like Nioh. Too much, actually.
Hopefully Ghost of Tsushima brings something fresh to the table.
I don't know, it looks a lot like Nioh...
But then, From Software is top quality so why not.
@KirbyTheVampire
Wasn't there a Chaos Wolf report via Devolver recently?
Might get this if gameplay's not too difficult.
I guess this means no Bloodborne 2, unless it's being saved for Sony's conference.
Either way looking forward to seeing more gameplay of this new IP.
Looks pretty good to me. I’ve got it on my radar.
Can't wait! Looks phenomenal as far as I'm concerned, like what Nioh could have been but didn't quite manage.
@JoeBlogs: Exactly, Nioh has already taken the excitement out of this and Ghost of whatever for me.
@andreoni79 Haha...touche. To be fair, this game looks faster and more of a rush (with all that jumpin' and grapple-hookin') than Dark Souls or Bloodborne, so it's definitely more appealing to me than a sequel to either of those previous series.
Nioh wasn't the best and this looks better to me. More action focused, at least from the trailer. Who knows with From Software though... they can be super creative. I liked the rope swinging and some of those move sets. I'm a fan!
Oh, and to all those saying Nioh ticked the samurai box... not hardly and there can't be too many samurai games in my opinion. Nioh was one type of game genre. we don't even know the exact type of game this is yet. Don't like samurai? Don't buy it.
