The era is Sengoku. Japan is split into many independent states locked in endless conflict. At its heart stands Ashina, a land of sacred ground and ancient secrets. Twenty years after Sword Saint Isshin Ashina seized control through a brutal overthrow, a new danger arises from within the Interior Ministry. Determined to shield his homeland, Isshin’s grandson Genichiro resorts to forbidden powers. The sole hope rests on a kidnapped boy—the Divine Heir—and his silent guardian, a devoted shinobi known simply as Sekiro. This tale follows a lord and his retainer on a mission to bring balance back to a nation teetering on the brink.
