Koei Tecmo's masocore action RPG NiOh is getting a free content update to keep things fresh.
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.
Free update ? Bring it.
Woah the words "Free" and "Content" are being used this gen?!
Keeping things fresh without bleeding the consumer dry?
Praise to the developer.
We happily pay rich Dlc and receive free extras to make our investment even more rewarding. We should happily boycott micro transactions and hold weekly witch-hunts to any that even conjure such a thought of implementing it into their games!
Classic in the making. A pure masterpiece.
See how Japanese devs reward players for patronage.. had it been some western developer, $20 minimum would've been their charge.
