FromSoftware’s ultra hard Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice is being adapted into an anime.
Called Sekiro No Defeat, it’s heading exclusively to Crunchyroll and is directed by Kenichi Kutsuna with character design by Takahiro Kishida.
The short clip at tonight’s Gamescom Opening Night Live shows Wolf fighting Genichiro in a field of reeds, one of the most iconic moments from the game. It also hints at other key moments from the game.
“We are taking on the monumental task of animating the breathtakingly beautiful Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice. In doing so, we are pouring every ounce of our artistic vision and passion for beauty into its production,” said Kenichi Kutsuna, director of the adaptation. “The final product is being crafted to be a truly memorable experience, one that will leave a lasting impression on both dedicated fans of the game and those who are discovering the world of Sekiro for the very first time. Please look forward to it.”
