6 Comments

Nioh is set for release later this year, but you'll be able to try it out this summer. A second demo is on the way for the combat-heavy samurai game that takes inspiration from Onimusha and Dark Souls.

The demo is planned for August, publisher Koei Tecmo announced on Twitter. The first alpha demo released April 26 and was available until May 5. Developer Team Ninja took the feedback from that demo and said it will remove weapon durability and revamp the stamina system.
