Activision has revealed some fresh details for FromSoftware's latest action-RPG, Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice. Not only have they revealed that the game has sold over 5 million copies since its release, but they also revealed that some new content is coming very soon.
On October 29, FromSoftware will release a free content update for Sekiro. This update will add "several new features" in to Sekiro. These features include the ability to go up against already defeated bosses, test your skills in boss gauntlets, and more.
Let's take a deeper look at what those boss gauntlets are all about.
Reflections and Gauntlets of Strength – Old and New Tests for the One-Armed Wolf
The Sculptor’s Idols are not only places of healing, but also tools for self-reflection. The Wolf felled many a foe in his journey for revenge, and in reflecting on these memories, he can gain an even greater sense of understanding and pride for his victories.
With this update, you will be able to take part in Reflections of Strength; re-matches against any previously defeated boss that can be accessed through any Sculptor’s Idol. These Reflections may help in preparing for Gauntlets of Strength, single-life challenges that will truly test only the bravest warriors… or the most foolish.
As by definition of a Gauntlet, if the Wolf dies at any point, he must start over from the beginning. You like a challenge, right?

After a player records their Remnant – whether it is an epic takedown of an enemy or a flawless demonstration of a tricky movement technique – it can be uploaded along with a written message so that other community members can play it back. Through these Remnants, one could hope that they or others may gain the knowledge and further insight to overcome their current obstacle. For those seeking ultimate guidance on traversing treacherous areas, or seeking hidden alcoves or curious cubby-holes, these records may prove a blessing from the gods.
If a community member watches and then rates a Remnant, the owner of it will have their HP recover for free, allowing them to get back into the fight quicker without the use of a Sculptor’s Idol, or consumable items such as Healing Gourds.
