On its official Twitter account last night, Team Ninja promised fans of Nioh 2 that new information regarding the game would be revealed soon. Set to take place on November 13, 2020, my PC loving brain wants me to believe this will be the announcement of a belated PC port. What’s more likely is that we’ll finally get some screenshots and a description of Nioh 2’s final DLC pack.
There’s also a chance that with the launch of the PlayStation 5 happening a day earlier, Team Ninja could be unveiling a next-generation port of its popular Souls-like action title. Nioh 2 performs incredibly well on even the base PS4, but it would be nice to get a 4K/60 fps option with the power of Sony’s new console.
Considering the usage of the PlayStation hashtag, I’m almost inclined to believe that is ultimately what we’ll see. Since the PS5 isn’t launching with the largest selection of titles around, it would be wise to capitalize on that lack of “new” games with an updated port of one of 2020s most exhilarating action romps.
Whatever the news does amount to, fans of Nioh have something to look forward to this week. It’s likely way too early to announce Nioh 3, but then Nioh 2 was revealed at E3 2018 a little over a year after its predecessor came out. Team Ninja seems to have figured out exactly what makes this series so popular and will likely continue to push it for the foreseeable future. I’m fine with that if each game remains fun.
