"Team Ninja was one of the first developers to make progress in not only replicating what made the Souls games special, but also putting its own spin on the combat. We're recommending the sequel over the first game, as while the story is somewhat linked in places, it isn't required to play through. However, no matter which one you decide to start with, the fast pace and stance-based combat allow for on-the-fly strategic thinking, giving it a bit of an edge over the competition."
"Nioh 2 adds more weapon types, a host of new skills, and even more Yokai-based foes to beat to a pulp. Enemies are incredibly diverse, from spirit-infused warriors to various monsters known as Yokai, who in this game use red flowers to buff their stats. If that's enough to convince you, one of the skills turns you into one of the round cats, called a Scampuss, which you meet in various levels."
Platforms: PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5. Developed by Team Ninja and released March 13, 2020. Nioh 2 emphasizes fast, stance-based combat that rewards on-the-fly strategic thinking. The sequel expands the original with more weapon types, additional skills, and a larger roster of Yokai foes. Enemies range from spirit-infused warriors to diverse monsters that use red flowers for stat buffs. A transformation skill turns the player into a Scampuss, allowing rolling attacks that impale enemies. The sequel is recommended over the first game because story links are minor and not required to enjoy gameplay.
