KOEI Tecmo has just announced that Nioh will be coming to the PC on November 7th. The PC will receive the Complete Edition (that will include the base game alongside the three DLCs that have been released).

Horrible game, even DS2 was better than this trite game
wrong, any trash game in the world is more entertaining than dark souls.
Those req… did they do all the work on amd HW
3gb vram minimum? 100gb? lemme guess, most of that will be uncompressed videos?
Don’t forget a high end video card with 3gb vram
It’s not high end, in 2013 it was.
And games nowadays are made for2012 hardware, like Nioh… but when it comes to PC you better get those shekels ready
Effing finally………..!!!!!! when this game came out on PS4 me and friends were just furious that it didnt came to the PC and it was even worse when my other friends who own a PS4 said its exclusive and probably stay that way, but I knew it would eventually end up coming to PC. Well its time to rub it in their faces LMAO!!!
Great!
As usual: rest in pieces hvd and walikor
calling it now, its going to be a terrible port
I would be mad if this wasn’t so adorably retarded it’s kind of hilarious.
‘Even the worst port has better frametime and performance on middle hardware than current console generation.’
I’ve seen cases where the PC version is just straight up worse before. And that said, why would I buy a belated PC release when it only offers parity with the console version that’s now in bargain bins?
Because you don’t own a console and want to play it?
So my choices are to offer nothing and be dismissed. Or offer something and be dismissed as cherry picking?
Erm… Okay. Have fun having this debate alone.
Erm… I told you to have this debate with yourself so I guess I can’t complain when you did just that…
My regards to Sir Scarecrow.
Your Nier Automata comparison is just plain dumb. Comparing a 980ti (well over 6TF GPU) to the 4.2TF (and that’s AMD TF’s which are proven to be less powerful in gaming FLOP to FLOP compared to Nvidia) and being surprised the 980ti was more powerful simply shows you don’t know what you’re talking about. Nice try noob.
With Koei-Tecmo’s record, I wouldn’t be so confident about that. Their games can be really picky with certain CPU configurations. Further the console game is actually well optmised… whereas this doesn’t sound like it has any effort at all being put into it.
I can’t figure out KT ports, their quality seems random. Warriors All Stars has a good port, then Blue Reflection has game-breaking problems and crashes. Also the issues each port has seem random, a lot of Gust games would use 100% of your CPU all the time, AoT had no vsync and had controller issues with no deadzones and randomly switched around buttons, some games had performance issues, other ran fine, Berserk had terrible performance due entirely to the highest environment quality setting but ran perfect with that set to low, Toukiden 2 had the same CPU issue as the Gust games and also has random crashes. It’s just pure chaos, Kekmo indeed.
This. This so much.
can expand resolution to 4k? Or auto expands?
Worse than Nier? Possibly…
Spot on, not that it was a tough guess lol. Via Eurogamer: https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/99475f159ee2890b5efe34cf6b6e3dc8f6ec786a76bef43acddc7a4bed0b3b95.png
Awesome new, hope Ninja Gaiden is coming soon.
Funnily enough Ninja Gaiden already has a well performing PC port. It’s just a shame that the one game they did deign to port (and port quite well) was err… Yaiba.
yeah and there are news that they at some point was bringing Ninja Gaiden Sigma to PC but at that time steam wasn’t a thing and because of X360 controller wasn’t a thing too they decided to not bring it to PC at that time just because of the controller, because a controller is reccommended to play it.
thats yaiba game not a gaiden game.
“wave file can be played” & 100gb disk space
when this japanese gonna learn that there’s something called compression
no wonder it gonna take this much, uncompressed audio and probably 10+ gigs of videos
no not really but it is the best platform to play games on when you only want to play on one platform.
or other 20 diffirent systems with emulators.
‘The digital-only PC release boasts stunning high-resolution graphics over two modes as Nioh: Complete Edition can be enjoyed either on ‘Action Mode’, featuring a stable 60fps, or on ‘Movie Mode’, a cinematic option that can expand the display resolution to 4K.’
I’m sorry Koei-Tecmo… but WTF are you even talking about?
*Sigh* Fortunately this is the kind of stupid thing that someone will fix within a few hours of release, so it’s not the end of the world or anything, But still.
What is wrong with the Japs?
Well, if it’s a broken port, at least it is salvageable.My real concern is if the game comes on PC packed with Denuvo… Ugh.
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhyesssssssssss!
Playstation what? Lmfao https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/422ec87f3ba822425b1440f69af496342cd73418c5448d4bd56b741cdd460fd4.jpg
no sht
playstation fanboys are always butxhurt because they have low iqs just like xbox fanboys
This is gonna piss a lot of Sony fanboys. Regardless it’s great news for pc gamers.
Now the real question being will it be a good port? History of koei tecmo’s recent releases might give the answer. Here’s hoping it isn’t the answer we get when it finally releases.
I wont gonna piss anyone , its a 10 month old games.
Console fanboys live by their exclusives. I bet if Halo 3 found his way to PC there would be a lot of microsoft fanboy tears…
Old is old.
Yakuza too.
Then they are not console fanboys, but an abused fanbase since microsh!t won’t cater to their needs…
10 months isnt old wth o.O
What a pleasant surprise!
I just hope it will be a better port than nier automata
100gb hdd space????? Wtf
I’ve never heard of it but I also haven’t owned a console in years. If it is good and around $20-25 I will probably eventually pick it up unless they add in Denuvo or some trash like that.
wew

Nioh is 10 months old.
100GB HDD and GTX 780 as a minimum ? WTF
Hah, knew this would happen with how many games Koei Tecmo has been porting lately. Prepare to see a lot of this today. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/ba5ae2e328e9d101915d77781cb6308b28de9ff5bcd2e94b9a3e60bfe43caa3c.jpg

LOl that recommended config…game looks worse that Uncharted 3 from PS3, and to play Nioh you need a i7/8gb ram and gtx 1060
Its a Port
lol 100gb
A high end graphic card as minimum requeriment? lmao…
Are you dim?
Well, it’s a high end GPU from 2 generations back though. The GTX 780 came out 4 1/2 years ago. Even a 1060 6GB is around 40% to 50% faster than the 780. The 780 was a very nice GPU in it’s day though. GPU tech advances fast. The entry level Voltas next year will run all over even high end Keplers like the 780/ 780 Ti.
High end GPU nowadays is just for gaming at 4k with high settings. We are still talking about a game made for PS4 hardware , nothing groundbreaking imo.
I agree. A 1080 Ti is really intended for 1440p, 4K, or 120 Hz/ 144 Hz 1080p monitors for really high FPS. The thing is that GPU tech advances so rapidly that even a high end GPU from 2 generations back gets left behind after 4 1/2 years. That high end $650 GTX 780 back then was a pretty sweet card but today it’s performance is closer to an entry level Pascal 1050 Ti. And 2 generations from now that mighty 1080 Ti will be performing close to an entry level GPU of the newest generation.
People that buy into high end cards know that and they don’t care. They want something close to the best and they’re willing to spend the big bucks to stay on top.
P. much i woudn’t have a problem with it if we where talking about a game like Star Citizen
I think it’s VRAM thing, because as you can see on AMD side game requires radeon 280 3GB, and that’s on pair with 680GTX performance, not 780GTX. Standard 780GTX has 3GB, while 680GTX had just 2GB.
If that’s the case they should include lower texture quality, is that too hard?
Nor is Nioh a high end game (it’s just a PS4 title)
“I wonder why the 100GB requirement”
They are lazy and we should rely on scene repacks
PS fanboys are upset right now.
I wouldn’t really call that reaction being upset rather than total nervous breakdown LMFAO!!!!
and another one bites the dust.
It’s KT, so I’m not going to be touching it until they’ve proven that they’ve done the job right.
Nice!
and why should we care if they’re upset or not?
So….yay? But did the game really need 100GB of storage?
Good news ! Nioh is coming to PC !
Bad News ! it’s still a KOEI Tecmo game ! so expect a KOEI Tecmo PC port…
