Last, but not least, we get the reveal of the third DLC for NiOh 2, which will be included in the Complete Edition and collection, coming on December 17 for those who already have the game.

The title is “The First Samurai.”

“Brace yourselves to take on some of the most challenging missions and formidable foes in the entire series, along with an added difficulty level that will give even the most seasoned veterans a run for their money. While you still have some time to prepare for this climactic expansion, I wanted to provide a bit of story context to give you a hint as to what awaits you in this next DLC installment.

A flash of light from Sohayamaru whisks the protagonist back to the past as a Visitor for the third and final time. They are brought back to the place their mother spoke of when they were very young, the land of the fabled youth that defeated an oni. Otakemaru’s past, the secret of Sohayamaru, and the truth behind the first samurai. All of these mysteries will be revealed, and the protagonist’s long journey will finally come to a climactic end.”

Below you can see all the trailers revealed today and the artwork for the new DLC.

Nioh 2 is currently available for PS4 alongside the DLC Darkness in the Capital and The Tengu’s Disciple.
