Nioh 3 just got a new demo, for those who have been wanting more samurai action the Nioh series always provided some crazy historical interpretations of ancient history. This new entry however has all the markings of a much bigger and better game, the original Nioh was rather clunky for many and it is often said that the sequel, Nioh 2, did much better than the first part. Nioh 3 on the other hand feels superior in every aspect to what we got in the past, much to the like of Dark Souls 3 this might be the definitive and potential the final entry of the Nioh series.
Nioh 3 got a demo
The demo is free to try and it will always remain up, more games should come with a demo so people can see if they wanna buy it or not. This new entry has the cool mechanic of giving you different styles such as the Ninja and Samurai style, similar to the stance system in the first game a system that really defined the series as a whole. Continue your battle against yokai in an expansive world that might be the biggest to date in the Nioh series, it is obvious that they drew inspiration from games like Elden Ring with the size.
Customization will also be an important aspect that will return, something that wasn’t really satisfactory in the first entry or even the second in my opinion having to deal with a set story character was an interesting thing however. Exploration will be a crucial part of the Nioh 3 experience, and for those who love expansive 3D worlds this is a game you shouldn’t give up on. The Nioh series always made me remember of Tenchu, and while Sekiro was meant to replace that series, Nioh feels like the proper replacement sans the stealth elements.
