3. Nioh

Nioh gameplay

Nioh allows the player to explore ancient Japan during the Sengoku, or “Warring States” period, through the lens of a perfect writer’s convenience, William Adams. Here you must fight against both enemy soldiers, as well as the Yokai of Japanese lore.

What Makes Nioh Awesome:

• In-depth combat system with multiple weapons allows for a wide range of player choice.
• Gripping fights pit the player against epic Yokai and legendary feudal lords.
• The amrita system has a Souls-like vibe, while also twisting the formula by finally adding gold to create a much more complex economy.

Fight terrifying Yokai creatures as a true samurai warrior.

Master your reflexes and learn your enemies to take down overwhelming bosses.
