This is a sequel of the dark warring-states action RPG “Nioh.”
A player takes a role of the “half-yokai,” who uses the power of both the samurai and the yokai to fight against yokai and warlords all over Japan.
“Character Creation,” which allows for customization of the main character, has been added, and other players killed in the middle of a battle have been turned into yokai.
The game received the award because many fans, who were impressed with the very solid difficulty level, say “the game surpassed its predecessor,” and that “it is a legitimate evolution of a dead game.”
Is he a samurai who slices through the darkness, or is he a demon clad in darkness?
This is a sequel of the dark warring-states action RPG “Nioh,” which received good reviews all over the world.
In addition to the “warring states dead game” concept of the predecessor, the essence of the "yokai" game has been enhanced. A player takes a main role of the “half-yokai,” who uses the power of both the “samurai” and the “yokai” to fight in the Warring States period of Japanese history, which is riddled with yokai.
Besides, the addition of the “Character Creation” function and the expansion of the online elements have made this game an even more challenging and rewarding “warring states dead game.”
The same great actors are used as in the predecessor. With Naoto Takenaka playing the role of “Tokichiro” and Haru playing the original character “Mumyo,” this is a heavy drama of a main character living in the Warring States period.
Thank you so much for selecting us for “Japan Game Awards 2020 Games of the Year Division Award for excellence.”
