When you first start Nioh, you’ll be treated with a good ol’ launcher, which is the only way to change most settings. The PC port is definitely not as horrible as I feared, but it also makes no attempts to be a better version than its PS4 sibling. Having now played up to the game’s second area on PC, I am left relieved yet disappointed. Why would there be a need for a mode like that? This was bizarre to hear, because one would assume - and expect - a standard resolution and graphics options screen on PC. In particular, the release mentioned that the two graphics options seen on PS4 – Cinematic, and Action – will return on PC. The short time between announcement and release had me a bit worried about the state of the PC version, but it was the language of the press release that got me fearing another terrible PC port of a beloved Japanese game. The tactic worked, I suppose, and here we are, less than a year later with a PC release in a game-of-the-year-style Complete Edition. Conveniently, a PC version was never hinted at by Koei Tecmo until the moment it was announced. Sony’s marketing pre-release made sure the conversation was kept squarely about Nioh being a PS4 exclusive. Months later, after three betas and a combined 50 hours of playtime in the launch PS4 version, I never actually expected to someday be playing it on a PC. Nioh, one of this year's best PS4 exclusives comes to PC, and I am both elated and frustrated.įrom the first time I heard about it, Nioh always seemed like a game that would fit really well on PC.
