Like other games developed by From Software, Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice highlights a number of various boss fights. There are tons of bosses and even sub-bosses scattered across Japan, although not all of them are optional. It should be noted that only a few of these monsters can really be called “Bosses,” but all of them will give players a run for their money.
The game currently offers a total of 41 bosses, but this could change if players unravel secret ones. After all, the studio is known for hiding extremely powerful bosses in games.
Below is a list of every boss in Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice that players can come across and fight. Note that this includes spoilers. So, for those who do not want to dive into the game’s biggest story moments, now is the time to skedaddle.
