10 Hidden Video Game Items That Change EVERYTHING
3. Aromatic Branch - Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice
Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice is chockfull of bandits, ninjas, and evil turkeys that'll make chop suey of you unless you mastered every single attack and defence. But just to ensure as few players complete the game fully as possible, the developers gave Sekiro four different endings, each of which can only be unlocked by performing a series of frustratingly specific tasks.
Completing the game normally is hard enough. But if you want to see the Purification Ending, you'll have your work cut out for you. Not only will you need to speak to key characters a certain amount of times and side with specific people to see this conclusion, you'll also have to locate a unique item.
If you defeat Great Shinobi Owl on Ashina Castle after remaining loyal to Kuro, you will be rewarded with an Aromatic Branch. This twig may not seem like much but it's vital to reach a secret boss in the Lady Butterfly room later. When you defeat him and attain the Aromatic Flower, you must offer it and the Divine Dragon's Tears to unlock this hidden Ending.
