They are described as remasters but the difference between them and just playing the originals using backwards compatibility on a PlayStation 5 is minimal, which means you might as well just pick up the original PlayStation 4 versions for considerably cheaper.Throw in special ninja tools and onmyo magic (which you can craft at shrines), and things start to get a little complicated. (The two Complete Editions are also available separately on PC but for some reason this bundle is not.)Īt £70 The Nioh Collection is not cheap and while the amount of content cannot be criticised, the remastered PlayStation 5 versions haven’t really changed much at all. No new content has been created for the PlayStation 5 versions but you do get all the DLC, which is a substantial amount. The Nioh Collection includes the Complete Editions of both games and you can read our original review of the first Nioh here and Nioh 2 here. This is in turn is made more difficult by the fact that there’s a much wider range of enemies in the second game, although together with the more inspired level design that’s definitely a good thing and makes Nioh 2 a definite improvement despite the core similarities. Things are more involved than that sounds though, given there are three different types of burst counter and you have to learn which is appropriate against which attack. These powers can be extremely powerful but they use up anima, which is needed to defend against the new burst attacks that most enemies are able to perform.
The sequel (actually prequel) is not markedly different but has the neat gimmick of casting you as a character who’s half yōkai and who can transform into animals and wield their various themed magical abilities.
