From Software Reveal Massive Boss For ‘Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice’
From Software have taken to Twitter to give a sneak peek at one of the bosses you’ll face in their upcoming action title Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice. The 20-second clip features a new boss by the name of Gyoubu Masataka Oniwa, a massive armored samurai with a giant polearm. Nice.
Given that the game is obviously inspired by Dark Souls (it is From Software, after all), you can probably expect that you’ll have to take down the guy from his horse first, then deal with him on foot.
Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice will be released on March 22, 2019 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC.

All of us here at Bloody Disgusting are deeply sad to learn that The Blob director Chuck Russell has passed away at 74 years old.
Russell’s career began with his directorial debut, 1987’s A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors.
The multihyphenate film director, screenwriter, and producer is best known for helming 1994 comedy The Mask starring Jim Carrey, Arnold Schwarzenegger actioner Eraser, and adventure spinoff The Scorpion King. The latter served as the first leading role for Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson.
The filmmaker left an indelible mark on horror with his ANOES sequel, 1988’s The Blob, and 2000’s Bless the Child.
Russell’s final film credit is 2024’s Witchboard remake starring Madison Iseman (I Know What You Did Last Summer), Aaron Dominguez (Only Murders in the Building), and Jamie Campbell Bower (“Stranger Things”).
It marked Russell’s return to horror after a lengthy hiatus, and he shared sequel hopes to Bloody Disgusting in an interview ahead of the remake’s release: “I got to design the board with real mystical symbols and things that I know represent good and evil, and where that board takes us if the audiences respond to the film, and I hope they will; I know it’s out there for you guys, but the sequel is a world we’ll get to go a little further. That’s sure the intention.”
He also recently expressed interest in returning to the franchise that began his career.
TMZ notes that Russell passed away at his San Diego-area home.
We send our deepest condolences to Chuck Russell’s family, friends, and fans.
