RPG Site sees the closed-doors Tokyo Game Show demo of Nioh, Koei's latest game, an action RPG with influences from Souls and Onimusha.
Team Ninja: "The Nioh franchise has sold over 6 million copies worldwide now!"
At 6 million NiOh is on the cusp of nearly outselling Ninja Gaiden’s 6.8 million with just only 2 titles under its belt
This could mean Team Ninja may see no reason to return to producing new NG games
they deserve this, Nioh is a amazing game. Hopefully they will expand and make a more ambitious game and have even more sales.
With PlayStation Now’s May lineup, you can try to survive unrelenting yokai in feudal Japan, rub shoulders with manga icons, and battle your way across an entire city. Starting tomorrow, May 4, Nioh, Jump Force and Streets of Rage 4 will be available to play on your PS5 or PS4 console.
Ohh I always wanted to try Jump Force. Can get back on my fantasy of being Goku :)
Nioh was given out on PS Plus around a year ago (most people who have PS Now also have PS Plus) and Jump Force is not particularly good. There's a big gap in quality between PS Plus and PS Now.
Total worldwide shipments and digital sales for Nioh 2 have surpassed two million units, and total shipments for the Nioh series have surpassed five million units, publisher Koei Tecmo and developer Team Ninja announced.
I'm so happy to hear that because that means they will continue developing amazing games like that.
Nioh is such a great game. I love the series.
Looks much more ambitious than the usual pseudo japan-exclusive generic samurai hack-n-slash game.
Kinda funny to think this game was one of the first announced PS3 games before the console even launched : https://www.youtube.com/wat...
Hopefully it releases in 2016 and not get delayed because I WANT IT!!!
NiOH is for me the best announced game at the TGS 2015!
I hadn't heard of it until TGS, but after its announcement, it's one of the new titles I'm most interested in learning more about.
