Koei Tecmo has announced Nioh 3 will release for PS5 in early 2026, but you can get a taste of the latest Team Ninja game in a time-limited demo available now. Catch the reveal trailer above, and play the demo between now and 18th June.
In the third entry, you’ll play as a “young warrior poised to become the next Shogun”, who can mix up their battle tactics between a samurai and a ninja. “Players will be able to switch between battle styles instantly at any time, playing in their preferred style in a storyline defined by the strong, the swift, and the wicked. Based on the tendencies of the enemies and stages, some players will prefer to switch seamlessly between Samurai and Ninja techniques, while others will choose to fight using only one style continuously based on the challenge ahead.”
Nioh 3 is also said to be a more “open” game, with an “open field” that “offers a new freedom of exploration to the unique tension and confrontations that have become a defining characteristic of the Nioh series”.
