This was admittedly a long shot, but we asked Team Ninja about the possibility anyway.

Those of us who already put dozens of hours into last year’s PS4 release will be able to transfer their progress to PS5, but sadly not PC. Some features will unsurprisingly only be available on PS5, but Team Ninja didn’t specify what those are, though the developer hinted at them being mostly related to the PS5’s hardware and peripherals, so likely DualSense support and things of that nature.

Beyond that, you can expect Nioh 2 on PC to be on the same level as the PS5 remaster, which releases the same day, for the most part. “As this is a very intense action game, we have put a limit on FPS options that are supported,” the developer revealed over email. The PC version will, however, offer 30fps, 60fps, and 120fps caps, but no way to completely unlock the framerate. Team Ninja confirmed to VG247 that the framerate is capped at 120fps in Nioh 2 on PC. Team Ninja is already talking up Nioh 2’s PC port, with support for high framerates, HDR, ultra-wide resolutions, mouse and keyboard, and a customisable set of graphics settings – so I was curious to learn more about the studio’s approach to PC this time around. It did the job, and Team Ninja later patched it with better keyboard and mouse support, but it remains a functional, if not brilliant port. When I looked at it at launch in 2017, I found it to be a straight console port with barely any options to customise, and poor utilisation of the hardware at that. The original game’s own PC release is a good example. But fans of Team Ninja’s work know that the studio doesn’t have the greatest track record when it comes to PC ports.

The PS4 release of Nioh 2, like its predecessor, offers a 60fps Action Mode that made it hard to just wait for the inevitable PC version to arrive. PC’s advantages are clear, but I usually go there for higher framerates above anything else. Given the choice, I tend to prefer the PC version of any given game. It’s hard not to be excited about playing Nioh 2 on PC.
