Nioh Gets a Firm Release Date, to Be Launched Worldwide in February 2017

Koei Tecmo General Producer Kou Shibusawa made an appearance at Sony’s TGS conference today, and revealed the release date for Nioh, their upcoming action RPG. While fans may be a little disappointed to know that the game won’t be coming out this year after all, like some had predicted, it is nice to know that the game will be enjoying a simultaneous worldwide launch in 2017.

There wasn’t any gameplay footage shown at the conference, but Shibusawa also spoke a bit about how the development team over at Team Ninja has worked hard on the game, and how they were glad to finally be able to announce a release date.

Nioh will be released for the PS4 on February 9 everywhere in the world.
