The reviewers praise the game for its excellent combat system, which has been expanded compared to the already excellent original. NiOh 2 also impresses with its extensive content and interesting character designs. The campaign's rather weak start and some bosses are criticized, however.
All editors emphasize that the game does not introduce any revolutionary solutions, but only improves and expands on what the first part offered. However, the reviewers don't mind, because proven solutions still give a lot of fun, and the devs have expanded the formula so much that there is no room for boredom.
As a reminder, NiOh 2 will be released on March 13, this year, exclusively on PlayStation 4. The PC version of the first part was released nine months after its debut on PS4, so we hope it will be the same in the case of the sequel.
