Nioh 2 originally released in March 2020. It then reappeared as Nioh 2: The Complete Edition a little less than a year later in February 2021. The Complete Edition includes all post-release DLC, such as the Tengu’s Disciple, Darkness in the Capital, and The First Samurai expansion. Prior to this update, Koei Tecmo confirmed Nioh 2 hit the 2 million unit milestone in April 2021.
The first Nioh title also performed well. The title passed the 3 million mark in February 2020. In April 2021, Koei Tecmo revealed its digital and physical sales hit 5 million units worldwide.
There's no word about a third entry yet. When Head of Team Ninja Fumihiko Yasuda spoke about potential features the team would like to bring into a future Nioh game, he noted development on the Nioh series had paused.
Nioh 2 is immediately available on the PlayStation 4 worldwide. Nioh 2: The Complete Edition is available for PlayStation 5 and PC.
