Should Japanese game devs focus on a Japanese style? Nioh 3 leads say it's "one of our strengths," but blindly "sticking with that Japanese style isn't good" on its own

"To look at Nioh as being a very Japanese flavor is something that we think is very good"

GamesRadar

"If we focus too much on casual players, that would take away the bite": Nioh 3 may be an easier Soulslike, but Team Ninja considers "really good" players when testing

In its effort to be Team Ninja's definitive action RPG, Nioh 3 loses some of the charm of its predecessors.

Dot Esports

A shot in the dark.

15 years after Dark Souls, Nioh 3 devs faced the exact same design problem: "That might be one reason some people felt that the game was a little bit easier"

Is Nioh 3 too easy? That depends on you, for starters

GamesRadar

I've been interviewing devs for 13 years, and it's rare to hear someone say this about their own critically acclaimed RPG weeks after release: "Nioh 3 is a great game but it's not perfect"

"We do hope that, if there's future titles, we can improve upon this"

GamesRadar

Weeks after Nioh 3's release, developer Team Ninja is being split into 3 as Koei Tecmo confirms major restructure

Part of the studio will become Gust Division 2, while the remainder will be split into two teams

GamesRadar

Nioh 3 has sold over 1 million copies in two weeks, breaking Team Ninja's record and carrying the series to 10 million sales

We were all hungry for a new soulslike to kick off the year, I guess.

PC Gamer

One of the worst bugs a Soulslike could ask for was making it "impossible" to heal in Nioh 3 with elixirs "sometimes," but thankfully it's been "partially fixed"

Team Ninja is on the case

Nioh 3 devs "never considered adding difficulty settings" to the notoriously brutal Soulslike games, because "one of the best parts" is getting good

"Nioh 3 has even more variations on strategies to clear the game compared to previous games"

PC Gamer

Nioh 3's open world is incredibly formulaic compared to Elden Ring's, so I'm slightly embarrassed by how much I'm loving it

The traditional approach is less exciting, but it works well for the series' first open-world outing.

Nioh 3 opens to strong reviews as critics praise the series’ evolution

Another successful entry in the Nioh series.

PC Gamer

I still can't master one of Nioh's simplest mechanics even after 10 years with the games, and 20 hours playing Nioh 3

Nioh 3 review

Team Ninja has poured its heart and soul into this open world sequel.

TechRadar

Nioh 3 taking the series to an open-world format works shockingly well — thanks to that and its style-switching combat, it’s become one of the best soulslikes I’ve ever played

Nioh 3’s changes to the series’ established formula make for a fresh yet familiar feeling game, and I can’t get enough of it.

Tom’s Guide

I almost quit Nioh 3 after a couple of hours — but now I’m obsessed with this delightfully difficult action-RPG

Nioh 3 represents the franchise's Elden Ring moment, taking its acclaimed combat and deep upgrade system into a well-designed open-world setting. Fans of challenging experiences will be playing this engaging action-RPG for a very long time.
