Nioh 2 - The First Samurai_02

Team Ninja’s final DLC for Nioh 2, The First Samurai, received its first trailer and gameplay footage in a recent stream. While you can watch the standalone trailer below, numerous other details were revealed ahead of the DLC’s launch today. Along with new enemies and bosses, players can expect new Soul Cores, Yokai Abilities, weapons and armor.

There were also be new Secret Arts Text skills, Guardian Spirits and a higher difficulty level. But perhaps the most interesting bit is the addition of new endgame content with The Underworld. The first game had The Abyss, which offered 999 floors of different challenges. Judging by the boatman in The First Samurai’s trailer, it’s possible that The Underworld is something similar.

Nioh 2 is currently available for PS4. Nioh 2 – The Complete Edition, which includes the base game and all DLC, will be coming to the console and PC on February 5th 2021. A remastered version of this will also be coming to PS5 with 4K resolution, “up to” 120 FPS support and save game transfers. Nioh 2 Remastered – The Complete Edition will also be included with The Nioh Collection on PS5, which also features a remaster of the first game and its DLC.
