About This Wiki
Nioh 3 Wiki is a fan-made, community-maintained resource covering the dark samurai action RPG from Team Ninja. Our editors write beginner guides, combat and weapon breakdowns, build tutorials, boss strategies, complete collectible locations and era-by-era walkthroughs.
Because Nioh 3 launched in February 2026 and its Hell Rising DLC is still rolling out, we revisit articles after every patch to keep tier lists, drop tables and mission notes accurate.
About Nioh 3
Nioh 3 is the third chapter of the Nioh series, releasing on PC and PS5 in February 2026. You play Tokugawa Takechiyo, who travels across four periods of Japanese history with the guardian spirit Kusanagi to stop his brother Tokugawa Kunimatsu.
