What Should I Play Now?

Nioh 2 – The Complete Edition

Image: Steam / KOEI TECMO GAMES CO., LTD.

  • Soulslike
  • Action
  • Feudal Japan

A soulslike set in Sengoku-era Japan: you create your own protagonist, half human and half yokai, and fight through yokai-infested missions, where the Soul Cores the yokai drop grant you their powers. It has online co-op for up to three and includes all 3 expansions.

Why play it now

When you've got energy and plenty of evenings: the base game took its producer 55 hours, and the three expansions add more.

Who it's for

For anyone after a brutally hard soulslike who doesn't mind sorting through gear and loot in menus at every turn.

When not to pick it

If revisiting the same places wears you down: many side missions reuse chunks of maps.
