The beta demo forNioh, the new action RPG from Team Ninja and Koei Tecmo is available today worldwide for PS4 players. Thebetademo builds upon the feedback received during the alpha demo period and offers players a look at more new content such as the newfamiliaritysystem which has replaced weapon durability.

Players can replay theUsukistage from the alpha demo with a chance to earn theMark of the ConquerorDLC if they have not done so yet. Those who beat the stage in the alpha start the beta with new weapons and extra money and can play the new Nakatsu stage right away. Those who complete theNakatsustage will earn a newDLCcalledMark of the Strong. Afterwards, the Twilight Mission becomes available which lets players tackle either of the 2 stages on a much more challenging difficulty with strongerenemies, new creatures and new rareitemsto earn. The demo will feature newweapons,onmyo magicandninjutsuas well as a training dojo available from the start where players can practice their techniques in a safe (relatively) environment.

The beta demo is available until September 6th, at which point it comes down and we presumably wait in eager anticipation for the game’s proper release, sometime later this year. Digging the beta demo? Let us know in the comments here and join the deeper discussion in theNioh Forums.

Editor at Fextralife. I look for the substantial in gaming and I try to connect video games to the emotions and stories they elicit. I love all things culture and history and have an odd fondness for the planet Jupiter. I think my dogs are pretty awesome too.

I don’t think it got easier. Combat feels almost exactly the same at early levels.

I tried summoning help. How do I know when they join?

And how do I join other peoples games?

Earlier today: “I wonder when the Nioh beta comes out…”Now: Nioh Beta Demo Out Today. Well that answers that. Thank you.

Just got the beta and jumping in. Digging the art style.

Do the dashes feel faster?

And does the start feel easier or I just got better?

Did the US finally get this? It seemed to not show up on the store for NA user for the longest time.

I look forward to some co-op
