Nioh - Update 1.16 bringt neuen "Skill"-PvP-Modus & Erhöhung des Maximal-Levels

Nioh hat ein neues Update.

Das PS4-exklusive Samurai-Action-RPG Nioh erhält ein neues Update, das neben einer Reihe Bugfixes und Balance-Verbesserungen die Levelgrenze von 500 auf 550 erhöht.

Mehr:Nioh im Test - Nur ein Dark Souls mit Samurai? Von wegen!

Die größte Neuerung, die das Update ins Spiel wirbelt, ist aber der neue PvP-Modus "Battles of Skill", bei dem wir anders als im bereits vorhandenen PvP-Modus "Battles of Strenght" nicht auf die Ausrüstung zurückgreifen können, die wir im Singleplayer aufgeklaubt und gemeistert haben. Stattdessen müssen wir mit anderem Equipment und damit mit anderen Fähigkeiten und Charakterwerten zurechtkommen. Es kommt hier eben auf unseren Skill an. Die vollständigen Patchnotes findet ihr unten.
