This week’s free game from the Epic Games Store is an action RPG that takes players to Japan to fight mystical creatures and fierce warriors. It is loosely based on William Adams, the first Englishman to visit Japan. Nioh was originally released in 2017 and recreates medieval Japanese environments and authentic weapons. It has been favorably compared to the Dark Souls and Ninja Gaiden games.
Nioh: The Complete Edition features all DLC plus an exclusive bonus item. It supports crossplay with Steam. It is free on the Epic Games Store until September 16. The complete edition of the sequel is currently on sale for $39.99, which gained DLSS support in February 2021.
