Any other games with sekiro combat mechanic?

The parry mechanic is soooo freakin good, would love some game suggestions with similar combat flow.

Similar games that I've played, nier, hogwarts, witcher series, mad max, batman trilogy

thymesia

you wont find anything as smooth as this sadly, its always like this, Game is successful, it never releases again................like Bloodborne

If you don't mind anime-style game, Ys VIII is really good (IX, Celceta and Seven are all good also, but VIII is the most popular)

Literally the two games closer to it in terms of the deflection mechanic are Jedi Fallen Order (don't go for Jedi Survivor until they get that performance fixed) and Sifu. Both have the equivalent of a posture meter and have a block/perfect block (deflection) mechanic that is your bread and butter in the combat.

Throwing further back a bit you can also try the DMC games playing Dante in Royal Guard which has a timed block mechanic which can be pretty broken, but has a way tighter timing than deflections in Sekiro.

Thymesia, as already stated, although Thymesia has great dodging and great parrying. It's very indie though, but amazing and fluid combat system.

Jedi: Fallen Order... as already stated again... but wanted to mention, you NEED to play this game on the highest difficulty. Period. It's the only way that the parry system is precise and strict enough to relate to Sekiro. Parry window is linked to difficulty.

Wo long. is extremely deflect base along with posture.

Strayed Light is game relised recently with posture and parry

Sifu is great game about martial arts clearly inspired Sekiro

Thymesia is Sekiro for poor people

Star Wars: Fallen Order is example what happens if Sekiro and Star Wars would have a child

Wo long is game so poorly optimized it looks like you need Nasa pc to keep stable 60 fps

thats about it.

I play a lot of 3rd person combat games since sekiro and non of them comes close, even tho there are a lot of good games around.

I guess Nioh 2 would be the next best imo. Its different and more complex with tze build, but you can stick to Katana if you like. There are some really cool enemies and bosses.

You can try Nioh 1 first but Nioh 2 is the bettter game with more mechanics. Its basically 70 % Nioh 1 again tho. So i would directly go for Nioh 2 if you havent played 1 yet.

Thymesia is cool but very short.

Wolong is fine but gets boring at the end because its not as deep as Nioh 2 and the bosses are not as fun as Sekiro.

I cannot recommend Jedi Fallen order really. It has 3 cool lightsaber fights, the rest was quite basic imo. Cant say nothing about the new release tho. Havent played that yet.

This is quite correct. As mentioned also, there are not that many cool bosses with decent mechanics, but the combat feels very nice overall.
