This is a cinematic mode inspired by the work of Takashi Miike, a renowned film director who does not shy away from a bit of blood and gore. You will notice that this mode will have much tighter camera work while you are in combat. The Miike Mode is a subtle flex on how advanced the PlayStation 5 is.

This mode can generate that much blood and mud in combat and even dismember or behead enemies. It’s similar to a realistic version of how it would be in a sword fight in 1603 during the Edo period and an homage to the work made by the director.
