With its launch around the corner, Beast of Reincarnation co-developer Fictions has dropped a new gameplay video outlining how players will hack and slash their way through a post-apocalyptic world. We already knew that the game borrows a few ideas from Sekiro for its moment-to-moment gameplay–including a parry mechanic that has one of the best “PING” deflection sounds we’ve heard in quite some time, and Fictions also detailed how it’s blending real-time action with the tactical depth of turn-based strategy.
Beast of Reincarnation’s bread-and-butter gameplay keeps players on their toes, as the Sekiro influence means that they’ll need to parry attacks and strike back with hard-hitting skills as the protagonist, Emma. As detailed in our preview video, enemy attacks have fairly generous windows for you to counter them, and each successful parry will fill up the FP gauge at the bottom of the screen. Once you’ve filled it up, players can summon their wolf companion Koo to assist them–an action that greatly slows down time and gives you a chance to catch your breath.

One of Koo’s attacks is the long-range Higanbana Seeds strike that can wear down enemies, and once their stun gauge is full, they’re easy pickings for an instant-kill
