Nioh: Complete Edition

Koei Tecmo has announced that Nioh is coming to PC on November 7th. Originally released on the Playstation 4, Nioh is an action role-playing game developed by Team Ninja.

The Playstation 4 version launched in February this year and was generally well-received, praised by critics and currently holding an 88/100 score on Metacritic.

Nioh will release via Steam as the ‘Complete Edition’, which includes the base game and all three DLC’s: Bloodshed’s End, Defiant Honour and Dragon of the North.

The PC version will also receive a brand new item, the Dharmachakra Kabuto helmet. As you can see, the helmet is entirely fitting for the introduction of Nioh to Steam. It’s described as a ‘holy image that represents spiritual enlightenment attained by casting off one’s wordly desires…’.

Subtle.

Nioh on PC can be played either in Action Mode or Movie Mode. Action Mode means you’ll get a stable 60fps, while Movie Mode is focused on a cinematic experience, allowing for a resolution that can be expanded up to 4K.

Unfortunately it seems like the players amongst you with serious rigs won’t be able to do both, as players are strictly limited to these two modes.

Koei Tecmo have also confirmed that unlike the Playstation 4 version, PC players will access to all seven weapon types, ninjutsu and onmyo magics from the beginning. Finishing the game will then unlock features such as the Dual Guardian Spirit and more.

The publisher added:

“Blending a compelling narrative loosely based on the tale of the English navigation officer who served Ieyasu Tokugawa, William Adams, with a myriad of strange supernatural creatures from Japanese folklore (Yokai), players of Nioh: Complete Edition will discover a diverse and comprehensive world dripping with history and lore, and face off against other samurai in epic sword battles and intense, multi-target engagements.”

You’ll be able to grab Nioh: Complete Edition on November 7 via Steam.

There hasn’t been much buzz surrounding Suicide Squad since its release in February. Warner Bros. was let down by the game’s underwhelming sales, but they remained committed to turning their live service vision into a reality. An exciting new DLC update has been released, introducing The Crown Prince of Crime to the game.

As the game’s first live season begins, players will have the chance to take on Green Lantern and, in the end, unlock The Joker as a playable character. Which Joker are you referring to? This is quite intricate. Furthermore, players can look forward to the inclusion of a Battle Pass, a variety of new shop items available for purchase, exciting Incursions and Strongholds to partake in, as well as an expanded selection of Infamy Sets and Notorious Gear to amass.

What are your thoughts on this? Does the allure of The Joker entice you to return to Suicide Squad, or have you remained a loyal fan all along? We value your feedback and would love to hear your thoughts in the comments section below.

While Sony may not classify Gran Turismo 7 as a live-service game, the team at Polyphony Digital certainly approaches it with a similar mindset. The game continues to impress with every new update, and although v1.44 may be smaller compared to previous versions, it still manages to enhance the already extensive content of this simulation racer.

The update, now available worldwide, introduces three new cars: the Audi R8 Coupé V10 Plus ’16, the Lamborghini Urus ’18, and the Toyota GT-One (TS020) ’99. Furthermore, it introduces three fresh events to World Circuits, an extra menu to conquer in the GT Café single-player campaign, and a collection of livery stickers inspired by the upcoming Highspeed Étoile anime, set to debut next week in Japan.

If you’re not already acquainted with Highspeed Étoile, you can watch a trailer right here. “Sony has announced that a collection of 26 stickers, consisting of 8 title logos and 18 main character stickers, will be made available for a limited time,” stated Sony on the PS Blog. In addition, Fukushima will be included as a backdrop in the title’s beloved photography mode.
