"We figured that a lot of different gamers, including those who enjoy Dark Souls, would also play Nioh," GameSpot quoted Hayashi as saying. "In the past, we did get feedback from our gamers about the same kind of PvP feature (like in Dark Souls) so we want to commit on adding to this to our game."

Moreover, the game director said that the "Nioh" PvP multiplayer DLC would be free to gamers. A season pass for pre-order of the game was also confirmed and it will come with three major DLCs that will be available shortly after the game's release.

During the broadcast, Hayashi is expected to introduce the game once again so players will be more interested in it.
