Latest ‘Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice’ Gameplay Footage Explores The Past

Published

on

Itching for more gameplay footage from From Software’s upcoming Dark Souls-esque Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice? Game Informer have posted new footage showing off a section of gameplay that takes place at the Hirata Estates. Seeing as it’s an exclusive, you’ll have to visit Game Informer’s article to view the footage.

The Hirata Estates is part of a flashback sequence that does the job of fleshing out the game’s protagonist, Sekiro, and his relationship with a character known as the “young lord”. From the footage, the game demonstrates new mechanics that separates it from its Dark Souls brethren, such as the use of Sekiro’s grappling hook, as well as From Software’s decision to not overly rely on enclosed quarters for battles with enemies. Plus, unlike in Dark Souls, Sekiro can swim.

It’ll be interesting to see how From Software’s marketing campaign treats the game, when it inevitably will be compared to their previous games using the same engine. Of course, seeing as we’re all waiting for Bloodborne 2, it might not be a bad thing to continue with the comparisons.

Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice will be released on March 22, 2019 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC.

‘Alien Hunt’ – It’s an ‘Alien’ and ‘Predator’ Mockbuster Rolled into One! [Trailer]

While you wait for Alien: Romulus, the folks over at Devilworks have cooked up their own slice of “mockbuster” fun with Alien Hunt, and we’re debuting the trailer here on BD this morning.

This brand-new sci-fi horror from director Aaron Mirtes (The Bigfoot Trap, Painted in Blood) is set for its US premiere on May 14, and you can find it on digital thanks to Devilworks.

You can exclusively watch the official trailer for Alien Hunt below, which looks to combine elements of Alien and Predator. This particular “mockbuster” has very little interest in hiding its inspirations, with the alien designs plucked straight out of H.R. Giger’s beautiful brain. Hey, if you’re going to pull from other movies, might as well take from the all-time greats!

In Alien Hunt, “On a hunting trip in the wilderness, a group of siblings discovers an abandoned military outpost on their land, but is it what it seems?

“Their trip takes a sinister turn when they find themselves facing off against a relentless army of extra-terrestrial beings. Suddenly, the hunters become the hunted.

“The formidable squad of alien soldiers will stop at nothing to wipe out the enemy and in an all-out, brutal battle for survival, it’s kill or be killed in Alien Hunt.”

Barron Boedecker (Escape Pod, The Bigfoot Trap), Brent Bentley (The Perfect In-Laws, Haunt Season), Deiondre Teagle (The Visitor, Painted in Blood, Death Ranch), Chelsey Fuller (The Bigfoot Trap, The Silent Natural), Jesse Santoyo (A Nashville Country Christmas, Potter’s Ground), and Adam Pietripaoli (The Bigfoot Trap, The OctoGames) star.
