About This Game

Conquer the Crucible, Become Shogun

Nioh 3 is the eagerly anticipated continuation of the dark samurai action RPG series Nioh. A deadly struggle unfolds amidst the devastation of an alternate Warring States period where bandits run rampant and yokai skulk about.

Key Elements of the Game:
• An open field that challenges you to the fullest

This game features an open field filled with the sense of tension characteristic of the "Nioh" series while also allowing you to explore to your heart's content. In this dark samurai world, you will encounter formidable yokai, explore menacing villages where darkness lurks, and struggle against the ominous presence of "the Crucible."

• Samurai and Ninja combat styles

You can enjoy an instantaneous and seamless switch between two combat styles during battle, facing your enemies head-on with Samurai Style and using quick movements and special techniques with Ninja Style.
