Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice

From the developers of Dark Souls series, Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice is another great 3rd person action RPG. Set in feudal Japan, you play a shinobi trying to rescue your young master with a magical bloodline. Though it is developed by FromSoftware, developer of Dark Souls series, this is a completely different game. It has a different story, combat mechanics, and different take on finishing levels. No two bosses will be defeated using the same tactics you used on the previous bosses. This game will hooked you into game figuring out different tactics to take down bosses. The game is too hard and tedious, but it so satisfying and rewarding you don’t mind dying hundreds of times throughout the game. The graphics is also great. Varied environments and locations gives you different feel. It also has a lower system requirements compared to other AAA titles out at the same time. A Radeon RX 570 can still give you 60FPS at 2560x1440 with mixed medium and high settings.
If you are a hard core fan of 3rd person action games and want to be challenged, get this.
After 20 years from the release of the original Resident Evil 2, Capcom released its remake edition. But this isn’t just an ordinary remake. Developers worked hard recreating this classic to fit into the modern graphics engine. It relives the old horror and terror with outstanding atmosphere and fearful sound score. They also added twists to the campaign and extra contents upon completing the campaign. Even if you played the original, Resident Evil 2 Remake feels like a new game. This is easily on the best Resident Evil game and the benchmark on how remakes should be.
