Nioh’s Beta Demo Launches On… When Day?

Koei Tecmo previously promised that a beta demo would also be available for the Japanese-styled Nioh. We can now tell you when it’s coming.

Thankfully, Team Ninja‘s game won’t come and go in just a mere few days, because the beta will start on August 23, and it will end on September 5. As the Alpha had over 800 thousand downloads, the PlayStation 4-exclusive title shouldn’t worry about the lack of interest.

A new dojo stage will feature an „intense training session” that teaches the basics of Nioh‘s combat system, plus we will also be able to explore a still unannounced stage. Additionally, there will be a selection of new katana, spears, axes, and hammers to use on our enemies.

Via Koei Tecmo, here’s the game’s overview: „Nioh follows the tale of William Adams as he travels to Japan and becomes a samurai. Players will discover a deep and enticing world that blends history and Japanese folklore. The tough gameplay pits players against daunting and overpowering creatures and encourages them to learn their enemies’ tactics to gain the advantage in battle.

The protagonist, William, is not alone against the perilous Yokai, as he will be accompanied by a diverse cast of characters who will aid him on his travels across Japan. Hanzo Hattori, the head of a famous ninja clan, is William’s guide through the country. Ginchiyo Tachibana (wife of Muneshige, the head of the Tachibana clan) will also help William on his quest with her skilled fighting abilities.”
