As far as lore goes, Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice will take you to Japan's Sengoku period, where you play Wolf, a shinobi whose duty is to protect his lord. Many of the creatures you'll face off against in Sekiro are inspired by yokai -- supernatural creatures and entities in Japanese mythology. There are also multiple locations in Sekiro that pay tribute to historic Japanese landmarks, like the Senpou Temple, based on the Kiyomizu-dera Buddhist temple in Kyoto.

Your strategy for beating the First Prince is pretty simple: You're going to want to bait out his lunging attacks, and then pile on the damage when he is vulnerable. Once you have done that, stick close to him, and try to circle around to his backside. Now the only attack you'll have to worry about is his tail swipe. Every time he gains a little distance, close it.

The Chitin Staff is great at keeping The Destined One alive, with bonus health recovered for each Focus point you use with a charged heavy attack. On top of this, you'll have a higher chance of dealing more damage with the useful five percent to critical cha

Preparation for this fight is pretty simple, as The First Prince doesn't inflict status effects, or really require any particular gimmicks that you should build around. Basically, the First Prince is just a big, beefy boy who tanks your hits and hits back twice as hard. So, you will want to be decked out in the most substantial armor you have access to build and the hardest-hitting weapon you have at your disposal.

The only weapon type available in Black Myth: Wukong is the staff. However, you can obtain more potent staves, some with unique passive effects, that'll help you with progression in the game's largely linear questline. Some staves can simply be upgraded with the right materials. Other times, rare weapons or materials for crafting weapons can be obtained through secret side questlines such as the case of collecting Buddha's eyes from statues in Chapter 2 .

Breaking records on Steam with over 2.2 million concurrent players, Black Myth: Wukong has been a major success for Game Science after four long years of fans waiting for its release. With an incredible opening spectacle, true next-generation graphics, and combat that rivals many other action RPG titles, Wukong has already stamped its place as a classic in the ge

Black Myth: Wukong follows in the same vein as the critically acclaimed PlayStation title, not only with its epic opening segment boss battle playing as Wukong but continues to produce high-quality boss encounters throughout its runtime. This is especially thanks to Unreal Engine 5 , providing almost lifelike sequences on scr

In the words of Teddy Roosevelt, "speak softly and carry a big stick; and you will go far." While that quote references a broader view of global geopolitics and foreign policy, it's literal form uniquely encapsulates the Destined One's intimate Journey To the West game. Your staff is your best friend and will see you through the most grueling fights in Black Myth: Wukong . While spells and spirits can aid you in conflict, it'll be the repeated blows and strategic strikes with your staff that'll bring down the toughest combatants.

As you are laying the smackdown on his butt, he will likely turn to face you mid-combo. Once he is facing you, he'll either try to crush you with a palm slam or smack you with a backhand. However, both of these attacks have notable tells, look for them, dodge through them, and then get behind him again.

The YouTuber also suggests taking the lengthy wind-up time for his tornado ability as an opportunity to attack him . While he charges up this ability, he plants his Trident into the ground and doesn't deal any damage to players during this process. You can get a lot of Light Attacks, a few Heavy Attacks, or Combos within this time, removing a large chunk of his Hea

As aforementioned, both games treat armor and weapon build acquisition in similar ways, which also applies to loot materials. Instead of finding gear in chests, materials that help the Destined One or Kratos craft high-quality gear are found there instead. This is what allows players to step away from main objectives, and dive into exploration for necessary materi

This attack is super fast once it is in motion, so you need to time it based on the animation that comes before it. He will raise his hands up above his head. Once his palms are showing, and his hands are above his noggin, get ready to dodge.

Each stance has its own skill tree complete with unique talents and skills that offer both active and passive abilities to enhance combat. Gain sparks to upgrade these trees through various means such as combat, exploring, finding meditation spots , etc. The skills available to unlock for each staff stance skill tree are summarized below:

Likely, one of the last weapons you'll obtain in Black Myth: Wukong is right near the end of the final chapter. After getting all four pieces of Wukong's armor, you'll be able to obtain Jingubang Staff and take it into the final frontier of boss fig
