I've made this new thread since this game was confirmed not to be Bloodborne 2.
A developer put a teaser on twitter too, and people seem to think it's a successor to Kuon, which is an obscure old survival horror game by From. This is in line with prior leaks by Dusk Golem who claimed the same.
Nah, it's not you or the search. I don't have Sekiro in the thread title since I made this before the full reveal, and that's a pretty important part of the title.
Found out this game was originally going to be Tenchu reboot in the latest Game Informer issue. Which From Software also owns that IP and it still has some of that game's DNA in it with the mechanics.
Yeah that explains the similarities. I guess they just wanted to meld its style with more recent FROM entries. I'm completely onboard. Now that RE2 is past, this and Death Stranding are all I have to look forward to
