Fast forward 18 years later to 2017, and developer LizardCube has
graced us with a pretty good remake for
modern consoles, Nintendo Switch included!
From the partners behind Dead or Alive and the iconic
modern Ninja Gaiden trilogy, Nioh
graced the PS4 earlier this year as a direct challenger towards Bloodborne as one of the
console's most difficult exclusive titles; hints of Bloodborne and Dark Souls influence are less than subtle in the challenging hack - and - slasher from Koei Tecmo and Team Ninja, but rather than opt for medieval and gothic mythology, Nioh thrusts players into a world stirred with European, feudal Japanese and demonic motifs.
