Masamune is a well-known historical figure who is both brilliant and ruthless.
In our opinion, his personality and exploits in history lend himself to become a key player to contend with in the story.
In keeping with the tradition of our inspiration through Japanese history and mythology, the central character for this new chapter is based on Lord Masamune Date, the ruler of the Sendai feudal domain in the Keicho Era (about 400 years ago). This new chapter picks up after William’s valiant victory in restoring peace to Japan. I’m sure many of you samurai have been hungry for more adventures and challenges. We’re excited to showcase our upcoming DLC for Nioh, Dragon of the North, coming to PlayStation 4 next week.
