A real unexpected surprise, one of the best Souls-like franchises is back with a new installment that no one saw coming. Or almost no one, since a few smart alecks clearly had the information. Yes, Team Ninja is back with a Nioh 3 that already promises to hit where it hurts, after a rather divisive Rise of the Ronin and a rather nice Wo Long Fallen Dynasty.
Surprise! Nioh 3 is announced, and it looks crazy
A real critical and apparently commercial success since it's now a franchise, Nioh has managed to carve out a place for itself among the great Souls-like family. It's now one of the most important figures in the genre and this announcement should clearly please fans. At tonight's State of Play, Nioh 3 showed off for the very first time with breathtaking gameplay and landscapes.
Nioh 3 already promises to be more open than its predecessors, and action will remain at the heart of the gameplay. You'll even be able to switch characters for even more dynamism. This was one of the strengths of previous games, and Nioh 3 seems to be no exception, offering gameplay that's still as fast-paced as ever, and most certainly plenty of combos and equipment to find here and there to eliminate all the demons that stand in our way.
Anyway, better than words and a presentation video, you can test the game yourself right now! This is the second surprise of this announcement: a Nioh 3 demo is available now on PS5. For the full game, however, you'll have to wait until early 2026. Unfortunately, no specific date to look forward to at the moment.
