📋 About This Mod

I've been playing a lot old classic Tenchu games lately (mostly Fatal Shadows and Wrath of Heaven and Tenchu 2) and it made me want to come back to Sekiro and make a reshade to go with all these awesome tenchu mods here on Sekiro Nexus. I will definitly update this reshade and improve it to get it as close as I can to the CGI cutscenes as i can get.

Please endorse if you like the reshade!
