When a Nioh Alpha demo was released on PS4 earlier this year, we discovered that the action game allows you to switch between two different modes that improved either the frame rate or resolution. Now, developer Team Ninja has announced what each mode will do when playing the final game on both the standard PS4 and Pro.
Localization manager Naoki Tamura also announced on the PlayStation Blog that Nioh will be published by Sony Interactive Entertainment in western regions. Koei Tecmo is the publisher elsewhere.
Nioh is scheduled to release worldwide on February 9, 2017. It had a second demo test for a limited time, and thanks to feedback from fans to both tests, the developer is going to make changes, such as revamping the stamina system and removing durability.
Our interview with director Fumihiko Yasuda revealed that Nioh wasn't always an action game, but instead a JRPG. You can read the full thing here.
The full list of modes and what they offer can be seen below.
