Team Ninja and Koei Tecmo's upcoming Samurai-themed action game is shaping up to be a very cool-looking title. Although it was announced just last year, Nioh has been in the works since at least 2004 when Koei announced it as Ni-Oh.
Luckily, the wait seems to have done Nioh good as it looks like a faster-paced Dark Souls. You take control of William, a blond-haired, blue-eyed samurai. You'll be questing through Japan during the Age of Warring States, and it also seems like there'll be supernatural elements as well.
A firm release date hasn't been set of Nioh, but it looks like we'll be seeing it sometime this year exclusively on PlayStation 4.
