The Nioh series is an interesting take on the souls-like hack-n’-slash action adventure genre. With Nioh, Team Ninja has pretty successfully pursued a style that mixes the winning elements of games like Dark Souls with the stylistic pedigree Team Ninja has featured in games like Ninja Gaiden. At the start of February 2021, Team Ninja is prepared to release remastered versions of its games on PC and PS5 that will include all DLC and make use of next-gen technology to improve the games drastically. With the release of The Nioh Collection and Nioh 2 - The Complete Edition in mind, we had a chance to speak with Team Ninja and Nioh Producer Fumihiko Yasuda about the improvements to Nioh 2, what influenced the various designs and balancing in the game, and even what comes next for Team Ninja and the Nioh franchise.
