Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, one of 2019’s highest-profile releases and the winner of multiple Game of the Year awards, will be getting additional content in a new update next week, offering fans of the From Software title more to enjoy from the brutally difficult game. It will be free to those that own a copy.
Launching on October 28 at 10 AM PDT, the update will add a host of new challenges for players to tackle. One of the biggest new features is Reflections of Strength, which will allow players to challenge bosses they’ve previously defeated yet again. These Reflections can help players prepare for Gauntlets of Strength, a single-life boss rush mode that sounds like the greatest challenge Sekiro has on offer, which says a lot considering the game’s difficulty curve.
In addition to the new game modes, players will also be able to unlock three new outfits, two of which can be earned through the Gauntlets, while the third is unlocked by beating the game once. The outfits don’t unlock new abilities or change stats, they’re merely intended to mark achievements that the player has accomplished throughout their playtime. It’s also simply a way for players to give themselves a little bit more flair.
One of the final changes is Remnants, which seems to operate like the Bloodstains in Dark Souls. The system allows players to record a 30-second clip of themselves, which can then be shared with other players. If a player watches a Remnant and gives it a rating, it will grant the poster an HP boost for free, without using a Healing Gourd or any other consumable item. It’s a nice perk, and one that will likely make it easier to tackle Sekiro’s bosses.
The update is meant to mark Sekiro‘s status as a Game of the Year winner, which it earned from numerous outlets last year. Of course, it did take quite some time to launch, considering that Sekiro released in March 2019. For fans of the game, however, it’s a substantial content drop, and one that adds a decent bit of replayability to the year-old title.
From Software has remained tight-lipped about its next project, Elden Ring, with virtually no information about it being released since its announcement. Fans have been waiting for any news regarding the title, though the Sekiro content should give them something to chew through while they wait for further updates.
Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice is available now for PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
