This version is going to be released digitally as Nioh: Complete Edition, and it will not only feature the original game, but also the compendium will include the three DLC expansions that have been made available for the PS4 version during its post-launch period. Regarding the title’s launch on PC, the game’s director Fumihiko Yasuda said the he and his crew of developers are excited for the action-RPG to expand its reach beyond console exclusivity.
Furthermore, Nioh: Complete Edition on PC is going to have Action Mode, which will run the title at a “stable 60 frames per second,” and Movie Mode, which is “a cinematic option that can expand the display resolution to 4K.” However, Koei Tecmo didn’t specify whether or not the Movie Mode will run at a lower frame rate in order to compensate for the 4K visuals it intends to display.
In order to celebrate the release of Nioh: Complete Edition, Team Ninja is releasing a new item called the Dharmachakra Kabuto helmet (found above) that will be available for the PC version. As seen in the object’s description below, it looks as if the developers had a bit of fun making it, as the piece is a wink and a nod to the fact that the game’s finally launching on personal computers through Steam.
All things considered, the launch of Nioh on PC as the Complete Edition ought to excite fans, especially since they will be getting all of the DLC in addition to the base game, including its PvP content, Dragon of the North, Defiant Honor, and Bloodshed’s End. Plus, PC gamers should be prepared for high quality content from the base game itself, as plenty of critics have lauded the game, with our review even positing that it “combines the stiff challenge of Dark Souls, the atmosphere of Onimusha, and the loot farming of Diablo to create an intense experience that’s hard to put down.”
“However, some claim this is not a Wheel of Dharma at all, merely a replica that looks as though it belongs on a device to regulate steam … Some have gone so far as to suggest renaming it to ‘Valve Kabuto,’ but why anyone would make a helmet featuring a valve is unclear.”
Nioh is available now for PlayStation 4, while Nioh: Complete Edition releases for PC on November 7, 2017.
