Nioh, far, wherever you are. I've probably made that bad pun before, but seriously, I hope our guides writer Jeremy's not close to any desks right now. Nioh 3, that game that pushed the poor bloke to the point of violence against the contents of his home, is getting its first major DLC next month. The expansion's dubbed Hell Rising, and kicks off a two-part story with a trip to a decimated version of Japanese capital Edo during the Keian era.

Nioh 3 is a pretty loaded action RPG with plenty of things to do and plenty for eager samurai to discover, but since it's been a tremendous success for Koei Tecmo, free content updates are expanding its many features ahead of the paid season pass DLCs (which, for anyone that knows the series, is par for the course by now).

Nioh 3 patch finally makes summons useful in boss fights, brings free armour for everyone
Team Ninja continues to work on Nioh 3. The developer has been releasing regular updates for the action RPG since its launch in early February. Earlier patches have addressed major bugs like healing item use inconsistencies, and more have arrived since to tackle various balance and loot-related issues.
Nioh 3 is, unsurprisingly, the fastest-selling game in the series with over a million units sold
Even before the game came out, it was pretty easy to guess that Nioh 3 would be a hit. From the word of mouth leading up to launch, to the well-received free demo, there was little chance the action RPG wasn’t going to be a major deal.
You're not crazy, trying to heal in Nioh 3 sometimes doesn't work - and Team Ninja is fixing it
Nioh 3 has received a hot new update that brings plenty of bug fixes to very specific issues, but it also implements fixes for a few of the most common - and incredibly annoying - bugs. Patch 1.03.01 arrived earlier on all platforms, and it comes with a chunky set of notes.
Nioh 3 is killing it on Steam with over double the series' highest concurrent player count

Nioh 3 launches, immediately becomes the most played Nioh ever on Steam

Nioh 3 review - Team Ninja’s most accomplished action game, and the series’ most accessible
The moment Nioh 3 was revealed as Team Ninja’s next project, it immediately jumped to the top of my most anticipated games of 2026. That excitement was dampened somewhat when the studio revealed the game’s “open field” level design. I am very much over open-world games, but I was particularly worried that we were about to get the Nioh version of Rise of the Ronin - which, really, was itself Nioh-lite in an open world.
Nioh 3’s generous demo is out now, and your progress carries over to the full game
Nioh 3 is one of the most anticipated games of 2026, and it’s easily among the biggest releases of February. We’re a few days away from the start of that month, however, but we don’t have to wait until then to actually play Team Ninja’s next major release.
