Graphically looks like a good step-up over Nioh. Unfortunately trailer is too short to make any judgements about anything else.

 

[Leo9]

Ok I'm hyped.

 

[Fredrik]

Looks awesome wow
Japanese devs are really pushing ahead right now imo

 

[Fuz]

"Woo Long", hey I hear that a lot.

 

[Bartski]

OK DAY ONE

 

[Punished Miku]

GAME OF THE YEARRRRRRRRRRR.

Damn that looks INCREDIBLE! Exactly what I hoped. A more acrobatic Nioh with Chinese martial arts.

Team Ninja is the GOAT.

 

[Elios83]

As a Nioh fan this looks really great.
Much improved graphics, more action, jumps and magic.
Really looking forward to it.
I saw a few rate drops in the trailer though, don't know if it depends on the video or they need to polish it.

 

[Fart Knight]

Game Pass baby!

 

[Fredrik]

Loving that slick dodge spin

FYI don't skip Stranger in Paradise. After you get past the memes its a damn fine action game. Nioh + 30 classes + Final Fantasy magic systems.

 

[vaibhavpisal]

Insane this will be coming to gamepass. I would have bought it otherwise if it were good.

Maybe will get season pass or something instead.

 

[anthony2690]

& just like that, this is now officially the game I'm most looking forward too, this looks excellent!

I'll probably buy a copy for the shelf anyway !

 

[Cyborg]

This looks a lot like Nioh will play it for sure

 

[R6Rider]

Looks good, other than the voice acting.

 

[Aggelos]

And JP version (for those who don't dig Eng voice acting)

 

[tusharngf]

Hopefully they improve the map design. Last two games map were pretty simple and straight forward.

 

[Bernd Lauert]

 

[R6Rider]

Japanese VO is better than the English, but it still needs Chinese to fit the setting. Anything else feels off.

I also hope they ditched the loot system from the Nioh games.

 

[clarky]

Looks like less Nioh more Ninja Gaiden from the little ive seen. Im in, shot right up the list after seeing this. Gamepass as well right?

 

[fatmarco]

I hate to do "that" post, but Gamepass is going to have a great 2023 lol.

 

[Aion002]

Hopefully it has a ton of build variety, just like Nioh.

 

[Punished Miku]

Hopefully it has a ton of build variety, just like Nioh.

The 5 forms kung fu systems they're talking about have me anticipating some kind of stance change system on steroids. 5 instead of 3? We'll see.

But yeah, I have no doubt the builds will be huge. Stranger in Paradise has 30 classes and lots of weapons. Nioh has tons of weapons and magic variety.

 

[.Pennywise]

English dub is not doing it for me

Yeah I’m fully aboard on this hype train! Reminds me of Elden Ring but looks more stylish. Combat looks so tight! Loving the art direction and monster design too, looks wild, more devs needs to learn how to use the imagination and stop going for boring realism, this is 10 times more interesting than anything I’ve seen from the west in like a decade.

[Bartski]

no loot trash, yes please!

 

[Strider Highwind]

Did that say Gamepass at the end of the trailer?!?!?!?!

Yooooooooooooooooooo I love Nioh 1 & 2 and still play them regularly with friends. We in there

 

[Fbh]

Seems similar to Nioh but it looks awesome.
Nice visual upgrade compared to Nioh 2, and based on that IGN article it seems like the gameplay will have a different feel, particularly because of no stamina bar.

 

[vaibhavpisal]

It's their take on Sekiro from what I gather.

 

[Roman Empire]

Pushing the Nioh gameplay formula further? I'm down for it!

 

[Punished Miku]

I doubt it has anything at all to do with Sekiro. They're drawing inspiration from Chinese martial arts directly.

Some of the more acrobatic elements look reminiscent of Ninja Gaiden a bit, like the head stomp move.

How so? i got the opposite, although i know very little about the game other than the 2 trailers.

Thats what i got from it, basically.

Dunno about the details. This video gave me the impression

 

[Shits_McGiggles]

I’m super excited to play this. Team Ninja has come a very long way since vanilla Ninja Gaiden 3

 

[Nankatsu]

I legit thought this was a Sekiro sequel.

Spoiler

But damn, does it look spicy.

 

[GymWolf]

"Woo Long", hey I hear that a lot.

From your barber when he cut your hairs?

 

[James Sawyer Ford]

Good get for GamePass

Looks fantastic

 

[Fools idol]

Sooo... Sekiro rip off? basically?

I jest. But come on.

Yup Nioh seems to have lit a fire up their ass. And i love it.

 

[vaibhavpisal]

Team Ninja are the original GOAT.

 

[Roufianos]

Looks awwwwwesome. Didn't even know this was coming to Game Pass, I definitely need to resubscribe next year.

 

[clarky]

Sooo... Sekiro rip off? basically?

I jest. But come on.

Sekrio rip off? Like theres never been any 3rd person hack and slash games before? If anything looks like they are taking inspiration from their own bc.

From are a decent developer, but come on lets not give them credit for giving us sundays off.

 

[The artful mincer]

Sooo... Sekiro rip off? basically?

Sekiro is a ninja gaiden rip off

 

[The artful mincer]

You can Jump!

100% in!

Apologies nothing I read confirms a loot change

 

[clarky]

Sekiro is a ninja gaiden rip off

Exactly my man

Kids these days........

 

[The artful mincer]

Exactly my man

Kids these days........

Not to mention a better game!!

 

[Thief1987]

Game has no stamina so it's definitely TN's take on Sekiro, while all games with stamina are obviously takes on Souls.
That's how things work in fromsoftware fanboys minds, i think.

 

[clarky]

Not to mention a better game!!

Ninja Gaiden is goat. Worth an xbox at the time. Awesome sauce.

 

[Punished Miku]

Ban this filth.
