In Nioh players will traverse war-torn Japan as William, a blonde-haired swordsman whose background as a fierce warrior and seasoned knowledge of the blade allows him to survive in the demon-plagued and of the samurai. Known as Yokai, these demons inhabit a number of dangerous locations and lie in wait in the the shadows to ambush unsuspecting victims. Players will also face off with other samurai in supernatural sword battles and intense, multi-target engagement offering a level of difficulty that will truly test even the most hardened samurai’s skills, patience and strategy.
