TL;DR: It's a co-op roguelike. Drop in, explore the map, survive 3 days and beat a unique boss.

Once you buy it you get access to the complete package, and there are no battle passes or microtransactions to contend with. It can also be played in singleplayer should you wish to stay offline, with enemy health pools that scale down so that it’s not too overwhelming for solo players (although curiously, there are currently no plans to allow players to play in pairs).

Sekiro and Elden ring are literally just a demon souls reskin, I already played that game for free with ps plus on the PS3 and it was an ok time waster in school

You either didn't get past the start screen, or you're trolling.

Sekiro has a single weapon, Elden Ring has hundreds
Sekiro has death blows and the parrying mechanic, Elden Ring has staggering, dodging and blocking
Sekiro has prosthetic tools you can upgrade and switch through, Elden Ring only has ashes of war
Sekiro has lots of vertical movement through grappling and jumping, Elden Ring has no comparable mechanic

Elden Ring is an evolution of the Demon Souls formula, but already with large changes. Sekiro is completely different.
