About

Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice (2019) is FromSoftware's action-adventure masterpiece set in feudal Japan, blending brutal sword combat with stealth mechanics and vertical traversal. The game earned a stellar 91/100 rating for its challenging gameplay, intricate level design, and visceral prosthetic weapon system that rewards creative combat strategies. Unlike the studio's Dark Souls series, Sekiro emphasizes skill-based deflection and parrying over defensive play, making it a refreshing evolution in challenging action gaming.

PC performance is generally very accessible, with the game running smoothly on mid-range hardware at high FPS on 1080p displays. An RTX 2060 or RX 5700 XT GPU handles 1440p gaming at 60+ FPS with maxed graphics settings, while even older GTX 1070 cards deliver solid performance at lower settings. The benchmark results show Sekiro scales well across GPU tiers, making it easy to find your ideal balance between graphics quality and frame rates.

If you enjoy demanding action games with tight combat mechanics, Sekiro is essential. Its 91/100 rating reflects a masterfully crafted experience that justifies the performance investment required to experience it properly.

Performance profile

March 2019 release. Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice was built around the GTX 10-series / RX Vega era. Current-gen mid-range cards (RTX 4060 / RX 7600) are overkill at 1080p and handle 1440p Ultra comfortably.

Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice is a narrative-driven experience — a rock-solid 60 FPS is plenty. Prioritise resolution and image quality (AA, anisotropic filtering) over chasing high-refresh framerates.

Entry-level hardware target. A GTX 1650 or RX 6500 XT reaches 60 FPS at 1080p Medium in Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice; an RTX 4060 comfortably sustains 1440p Ultra. 4K Ultra 60 FPS needs an RTX 4070 or better.

Storyline

The game takes place in a re-imagined 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 are 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.
