The First Samurai is a lovely, if bloody way to wrap up the Nioh 2 saga. From its vibrant levels to its imaginative yokai to its crushing difficulty, this DLC does almost everything base Nioh 2 did but better aside from the superfluous storytelling. Team Ninja may have been honing its craft to get to this level for the final expansion, but in doing so the developer has saved the best for last. Nioh 2 The First Samurai DLC reviewed on PS4.

A mixed bag that gets a tentative recommendation, I’ll always welcome new content to one of my favourite games but I'd appreciate it if Team Ninja didn't make it feel like busy work just so I can pop those last few trophies. 3.9 Ni-Oh, Let's Go! DLC packs are a tricky thing to balance – You’ve got to retain the core tenets of what made the original game enjoyable whilst also adding new features in order to incentivise players to return.
