You can also tell those presets to suck it and max out the game, which is a great feature for PC users. As for the in-game settings, you can toggle things like display mode and framerate cap and…wait, why is that also in-game? That oddness aside, the in-game options feature the same two presets from the PS4 version (Cinematic and Action), but you can switch on/off stuff like shadows, dynamic reflections, or motion blur. The graphics options in the launcher aren’t exactly expansive, but you can toggle things like resolution (with full 4K support), framerate cap, and display options (Windowed, Fullscreen and Bordered).

A quick glance at the in-game graphics options was super limited and I was beginning to worry that this port was a total joke. When I first booted the game, everything was locked to 720p and it looked a little rough. If you use the shortcut, you’ll skip the separate launcher that allows you to toggle resolution and graphics options. To start off, make sure you launch Nioh from your games list on Steam and not via the shortcut.

Let’s take a deeper look! It was relegated to the PS4, though, so only a select brand of gamers got a chance to experience the ride.

It was one of the very best games from earlier this year and still remains a “Game of the Year” contender nine months later. The game shifted the setting away from Gothic and eldritch horrors and moved into the Sengoku Period of Japan, making for a title with a heavy emphasis on action and with visual flair to spare. Earlier this year, Team Ninja released their take on FromSoftware’s winning Souls formula in the form of Nioh.
