10 Unique Video Game Fights That Play Like NOTHING Else

10. The Headless Battles - Sekiro

Although it's not a game that can be summed up easily, Sekiro is more or less Dark Souls on steroids. Gone are the days of worrying about getting your shield up, as not only does Sekiro not have them, but it actively rewards a more aggressive gameplay style, encouraging you to keep close to your enemies - like a little shinobi flea.

Which is why it's entirely surreal the first time you encounter one of the mini-bosses spread throughout the game known as the Headless. Unlike regular minibosses, Headless have an aura around them that slow time down, meaning that everything you've learned about when to block and when to attack enemies goes straight out of the window. They also cause Terror, which is a status effect that will murder you dead if the bar completely fills.

Without using items to prevent death from Terror - and to up your damage to avoid clawing your eyes out at how slow the fight goes - the Headless could be some of the most difficult battles in your entire game. Trust Sekiro to manage to make the slowest fight they have also some of the hardest.
