Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice

A shinobi called the Wolf fights to rescue his young lord in a stylised Sengoku-era Japan. Combat revolves around deflecting attacks to break the enemy's posture, and a prosthetic arm with a grappling hook adds tools and mobility. There is no co-op, so every boss has to be mastered alone.
