The wonderful Nioh 2 may have gotten lost amongst all the hullabaloo of March and April 2020's PlayStation 4 releases, so this is the perfect opportunity to remind you that it's still very much worth checking out. Garnering an 8/10 in the Push Square review, the game is about to get even better with a number of new updates that add more features and levels to tackle later today.
First up is nine new sub-missions/Twilight Missions which you can experience alongside the main story. Creative director at Team Ninja, Tom Lee, said that this came about as part of a commitment to providing the game's community with engaging content. "And in our efforts to fulfill that commitment, we will vigorously pay close attention to your feedback and continue to provide updates when we are able. This is our promise to you."
Photo Mode is also on its way to Nioh 2 today. It will include options such as image exposure, gradation, lighting & tint adjustments, and a variety of dramatic filters. Check out what it looks like in the new screenshots below.
And finally, the game's first piece of DLC arrives on 30th July 2020. It's titled The Tengu's Disciple and features a new storyline, new Yokai, more bosses to beat, and extra pieces of armour to equip. "A great battle has taken place at Yashima in the late Heian period. As a visitor in Yashima, our protagonist finds a shrine possessing a mysterious whistle called the Sohayamaru. Upon inspection, the whistle shines radiantly as the shadow of Yokai can be seen lurking in the background. It is revealed that whenever wars take place, heroes wielding the Sohayamaru will head into battle in order to restore peace back into this land."
That's lots of content to keep Nioh 2 players coming back for more -- are you one of them? Let's see your Guardian Spirit in the comments below.

Yes bring it on! Got to the 5th area yesterday. Still got plenty to do before the first DLC drop.
Going to try out photo mode later todayš.
I just reached the 6th area last weekend, but I've had to stall because I'm putting in a new ceiling.
I should be done in the next few hours then I'm getting straight back to this. Delighted to hear that they've added a bunch of content. This is easily one of my favourite games in a very long time.
Sure, it's infuriating sometimes, but it's too compelling to put down.
Already platinumed the game but I'm excited to play some new missions and cant wait for the dlc to come out.
I hope they make a physical GOTY/Complete edition with all on disc.
Iām still working my way through it. Superb game!! Canāt wait for the dlc. The previous gameās dlc gave it hundreds of extra hours of play time.
God, I adore Nioh 1 and 2! My favourite games this generation. Bring on the expansions and Iāll be there day 1.
