「SEKIRO: NO DEFEAT」 September 2026

In Sengoku Jidai, Japan is fractured into factions entangled in civil wars. At the center lies Ashina, a land of sacred earth and ancient mystery. Two decades after Sword Saint Isshin Ashina reclaimed the region in a brutal coup, a new threat emerges from within: The Interior Ministry. Desperate to protect his homeland, Isshin's grandson Gen'ichirou turns to forbidden powers. The only hope lies in a kidnapped boy—the Divine Heir—and his silent protector: a loyal shinobi known only as Sekiro.

Two Samurai trailers drop around the same time? What a glorious time! First, The Samurai and the Prisoner, now Sekiro : No Defeat.

I joked to my friend that they probably reused some of the armor in The Hidden Fortress because what Mifune is wearing was a little similar to what he wore in The Hidden Fortress. (I also my be wrong and my memory might be bad, feel free to correct me anyone who knows.)
