Peak Sekiro-like Nine Sols gets a 40% price cut ahead of its 1-year anniversary, and if you've ever liked parrying in a videogame, you need to play this thing

Nine Sols is a game I very nearly missed last year—it arrived in May 2024, but I didn't play it until December of the same year. I spent the next 28 hours methodically kicking myself, because it's one of my favourite Sekiro-likes of all time, and I'd recommend it to just about anybody. Especially now it's 40% off.

For the uninitiated, Nine Sols is an indie game made by Red Candle Games (a studio who'd previously only made horror titles) that blends Hollow Knight's metroidvania stylings with Sekiro's parry-timing combat.
