Gameplay
Nioh 3 is an action role-playing game played from a third-person perspective. In the game, the player controls Tokugawa Takechiyo, the grandchild of Tokugawa Ieyasu, who battles yokai and supernatural beings as they ascend to the role of Shogun. Similar to Nioh 2, players will be able to fully customize the protagonist's appearance. The game features two distinct playstyles. The Samurai style plays similarly to previous Nioh games, with players having access to three weapon stances. Combat actions consume Ki, but players can use "Ki Pulse" to restore stamina after performing a combo or attack. As players deal damage to enemies, their "Arts Proficiency" gradually increases. Once the gauge is filled, players can unleash a devastating attack. The game also introduces a new parrying mechanic. The game also introduces the Ninja playstyle, which is faster, evasion-focused, and excels at aerial attacks and ranged attacks. Weapon stances are replaced by three ninja tools that players can use in combat. Instead of Ki Pulse, the Ninja playstyle features "Mist," allowing players to create a clone of themselves to distract enemies, enabling a quick dash behind them for devastating damage. While the two playstyle do not share any equipment, players can freely switch between the two playstyles at will. As with its predecessors, players can also use guardian spirit transformations and skills, as well as Soul Cores, during combat. Unlike its predecessors, Nioh 3 is less linear and features larger explorable spaces. Players can discover points of interest where they can find and complete side quests or optional combat challenges. In addition to the single-player mode, the game offers two online multiplayer modes: "Summon Visitor," which allows players to summon another player for assistance with difficult boss fights, and "Expedition," which enables players to explore the open fields together.
