It was nominated for various awards and won several, including The Game Award for Game of the Year. Sekiro was praised by critics, who complimented its gameplay and setting, and compared it to the Souls games, although opinions on its difficulty were mixed. The developers looked to games such as the Tenchu series for inspiration. While making the game, lead director Hidetaka Miyazaki wanted to create a new intellectual property (IP) that marked a departure from the Dark Souls series of games also made by FromSoftware. The game takes place in a fictionalized Japan during the Sengoku period and makes strong references to Buddhist mythology and philosophy. Gameplay is focused on stealth, exploration, and combat, with a particular emphasis on boss battles. It was released for PlayStation 4, Windows, and Xbox One in March 2019 and for Stadia in October 2020.
