Publisher Koei Tecmo, alongside developer Team Ninja, announced that its yokai-hunting RPG series Nioh has hit an impressive double milestone. 2020 release Nioh 2 has recently achieved a total of two million shipments and digital sales, whi...

Remember when Team Ninja said it was "looking into" reports of Nioh 2 crashes on PC? Well, they looked into it! Ironically, the bug was introduced with a prior patch, leaving Team Ninja to scramble and find a fix for it. That very fix has b...

So you've been enjoying Nioh 2 on PC? That's good! Things seem to be mostly fine, and the reception on Steam has been pretty positive. But not everyone is operating at the same capacity. Just recently, Team Ninja put out a new set of b...

As if I don't already have a hard enough time sticking to a single character transformation in Nioh 2, Team Ninja went ahead and released the Ryu Hayabusa-approved "Dragon Ninja" look for free in-game. To grab it, update your copy of Nioh ...

Tomorrow sees the launch of Nioh Collection on PS5, bringing together two excellent adventure titles, freshly remastered for Sony's next-gen hardware. Publisher Koei Tecmo, alongside developer Team Ninja, has released a dramatic launch trai...

After pouring easily hundreds of hours into Nioh 2 and its three DLC packs on PS4, it's admittedly been pretty jarring to start a fresh save on PC – even if I'm only here for preview purposes right now. I had forgotten just how lethal...

Team Ninja is closing the door on the Nioh series now that "the story that we had built has come to an end," and the studio has "no plans currently" for a new Ninja Gaiden, according to Fumihiko Yasuda. In an interview with Video Games Chro...

As you can see with Jordan's most recent preview, Nioh 2 works well on PC. But it took a lot of work to get there. We caught up very briefly with Team Ninja producer Fumihiko Yasuda to chat about the new remasters, and get a littl...

A huge part of Nioh 2 is looking your absolute demon-slaying best, and Team Ninja has a pair of limited-time "bonus" armor sets – one golden, one... feline – that you'll want to check out next month. As PlayStation noted on Twit...

I had hoped – and even started to believe – that Nioh 2 was building up to a thrilling conclusion across its three DLC packs, but the final expansion, The First Samurai, is a bit of a letdown. It's not outright bad, and I'm just...

It's a busy day for Nioh news, all of it good. Scratch that. Almost all of it good. Both Nioh games are coming to PS5 with 4K and 120fps support on February 5, 2021. (That's good.) Also, Nioh 2's complete edition is launchin...

It's incredible to see Team Ninja bounce back with the Nioh series. After a string of mistakes (capped off by Yaiba: Ninja Gaiden Z) things weren't looking good for the studio, but Nioh brought them back into the collective consciousne...

With Team Ninja dropping Nioh 2 DLC every few months, it's tough to catch up and stay caught up. Darkness in the Capital uses the same structure as The Tengu's Disciple, meaning there's a new weapon to learn (Fists and Clawed Fists), a few ...

It feels like I just beat up yokai with Benkei in Nioh 2: The Tengu's Disciple the other day, but Team Ninja is already coming back with Darkness in the Capital, the second story expansion, on October 15. During Tokyo Game Show 2020, the s...

Nioh has been a font of fun for me for years. This series completely rules, as it finds a fine line between action and exploration and sticks to it: the level-based system is great for some bite-sized romp itches that other open world games...

You might finish all of the Tengu's Disciple DLC missions in one go, but Nioh 2's newly-added Dream of the Demon mode is going to be a weeks-long time-sink for many of us. After hearing about the reward for clearing the base game on New Gam...

After spending an absurd amount of time with Nioh 2 this year in pursuit of the platinum trophy, New Game+, and incrementally better character builds, I wasn't sure if I was ready to return so soon. It's a testament to this game – and...

From one samurai game to the next. Nioh 2's first DLC, The Tengu's Disciple, is out today on PS4. If you're downloading the standalone version of The Tengu's Disciple – I wouldn't bother! – it's $9.99. If you go for the Nioh 2 S...

Ahead of Nioh 2's first DLC release, Team Ninja briefly showed off a new weapon type called the Splitstaff. It would look right at home in Ninja Gaiden, which means it's probably going to be a blast. The Tengu's Disciple, the first of thre...

Team Ninja continues to bring it with Nioh 2, one of my favorite games of the year thus far. While the base was pretty fully-featured already, the studio has continued to alter the game over time, and today we're getting our most subst...

Team Ninja is continuously refining Nioh 2. I'm done with the game for now – apart from the never-ending incremental loot grind and some of the ridiculous weapon-specific Title challenges, I've finished everything I set out to –...

There's something about blazing through a 1.0 edition of a game like Dark Souls or Nioh, pre-release, that's immensely satisfying. There's no meta. There's no guides to consult. And the developers made their decisions already with no l...

I've been patiently waiting for the Nioh 2 community to rally around a go-to farming strategy, and while there isn't a consensus yet – and there are multiple long-term goals to grind out, including your XP, gold, and weapon/Onmyo/Ninj...

You know how annoying it is when developers release major patches for games and kind of just go silent? That's not what Team Ninja is doing and I appreciate the hell out of it. Nioh 2's version 1.05 patch is now live for the only version of...

If you're a returning Nioh player, you're probably counting the seconds until you can unlock nodes on the Onmyo and Ninjutsu skill trees in Nioh 2 and start flinging your comfy old spells, buffs, and traps. You'll still want to keep an eye ...
