We're just one week away from the PS4 release of Nioh 2, the sequel to Team Ninja's engrossing 2017 action-RPG. If you haven't played the original yet, PC players can pick up Nioh's Complete Edition for 70% off at Steam until March 9, dropping the price from $50 to $15. That's an incredible deal for a package that's brimming with engaging, challenging content.
The Complete Edition comes with Nioh's three story expansions: Dragon of the North, Defiant Honor, and Bloodshed's End. Each expansion contains new story campaigns and opens up previously unexplored regions in Japan circa 1600, adding hours of new content to an adventure that already clocks in north of 50 hours. PC players also get the exclusive Dharmachakra Kabuto helmet to wear in-game. The Complete Edition isn't on sale on PS4, but you grab the base game for $14.88 at Amazon (was $20).

With a wealth of customization options, Nioh never grows stale despite its length.
