Why Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice can trigger motion sickness
The camera follows Wolf through close, quick combat. GameSkinny's settings guide shows Motion Blur and Depth of Field as options you can set to Off in the Advanced graphics options. The field of view is the part the menus leave out: PCGamingWiki lists community tools as the way to change it on PC.
