Nioh Action Game Sells 2.5 Million Copies

The official Japanese Twitter account for Koei Tecmo Games' Nioh action game revealed on Tuesday that the game has sold more than 2.5 million copies worldwide.

The game launched for the PlayStation 4 in North America, Europe, and Japan in February 2017. Koei Tecmo America released the game on PC with its DLC expansions under the title Nioh: Complete Edition in November 2017. Koei Tecmo Games is developing a sequel.

Koei Tecmo Games Europe describes the game:

In the dark, fantasy action RPG Nioh, players will traverse war-torn Japan as William, a blonde-haired swordsman whose background as a fierce warrior and seasoned knowledge of the blade allows him to survive in the demon-plagued land of the samurai. Players will face off against other samurai in epic sword battles and intense, multi-target engagements offering a level of difficulty that will truly test even the most hardened samurai's skills, patience, and strategy.

Team Ninja (Dead or Alive series, Dissidia Final Fantasy arcade) developed the game.
