FromSoftware developed a new action game that Activision published earlier this year. The game, named Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, follows the “one-armed wolf”, a disgraced and disfigured warrior rescued from the brink of death.  The protagonist has a single goal, to protect a young lord who is the descendant of an ancient bloodline. The storyline makes it one of the most interesting action-adventure games in the market. The game boasts of a large player base. And with a big player base, comes a lot of demands.

FromSoftware is ready to deliver a few of these demands with the launch of a Game of the Year Edition. The free update will arrive on October 28,  10 AM PT.
