An anime adaptation of From Software’s Sekiro: Shadow Die Twice has been rumored for years now, and it looks like an official reveal could be made soon.
A new web domain for “Sekiro-Anime” has been registered by Kadokawa Corporation, the parent company of From Software (via Vestan on ResetEra). This was created on July 31, supporting rumors of an upcoming anime series that’ll supposedly be animated by Qzil.la, a studio that has worked primarily on short projects and opening/closing credit sequences for big shows like Chainsaw Man and Hell’s Paradise.
The last couple of years have seen several big video game IP adapted into anime, with noteworthy examples being Castlevania and Cyberpunk: Edgerunners. Ghost of Tsushima is also being adapted for anime, with this project focusing on the game’s Legends co-op mode, not the main storyline. Added to the game after launch, Legends is a four-person co-op mode that introduced new warriors who banded together to battle creatures born from Japanese myths and legends.
