The date’s further out than many people waiting on the Dark Souls creator’s next game would’ve hoped, but it’s not an entirely unexpected one. With Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice officially being unveiled back in June during E3, the release date has the game becoming available less than a year after the official unveiling. FromSoftware and publisher Activision announced the release date of the game today with a tweet confirming the date.

Gamescom attendees will be able to experience the game firsthand this week as well with a hands-on demonstration giving a first look at the game’s combat and style.
“We can’t wait for fans to finally get their hands on Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice,” said Steve Young, chief revenue officer at Activision. “Fans will get a taste of the multiple tools available for the prosthetic shinobi arm this week at Gamescom, and will be able to fully dive into the brutal, dark world of 1500s Sengoku Japan when the game launches on March 22, 2019.”
Activision’s blog post about the announcement also shared more gameplay details that deal with the prosthetic tool players use to navigate the environment and fight enemies. Referring to the main character as the “one-armed wolf,” the post says that the protagonist will use the prosthetic for different purposes outside of the grappling hook that’s already been revealed. New actions become available by reconstructing the tool, one of which is a series of powerful charge attacks.
