A new report suggests that one of the most highly-anticipated upcoming PlayStation 5 titles, Team Ninja’s Nioh 3, may not remain an exclusive for long. The latest trailer for the action role-playing game reveals that while it will debut as a PlayStation 5 exclusive, players on other platforms can expect to access it within a defined timeframe.
At the end of the trailer, a fine print disclaimer indicates that Nioh 3 will not be available on other consoles for at least six months following its launch date of February 6, 2026. Although the trailer does not specify which consoles may eventually host the game, this announcement has sparked excitement among fans who own platforms beyond the PlayStation. Currently, Nioh 3 is confirmed for release on PC, but there is no current mention of an Xbox version. However, the possibility remains that an Xbox edition could be developed after the exclusivity period ends.
Nioh 3 marks the continuation of Team Ninja’s acclaimed Nioh series, taking place after the events of its predecessors. Players will once again engage in thrilling battles against yokai and supernatural beings, controlling Tokugawa Takechiyo, the grandchild of the historical figure Tokugawa Ieyasu. The first two entries in the franchise have seen significant success, with Nioh 2, which was released in 2020 as a prequel to the original, contributing to the series achieving over 8 million units sold globally by last year.
With the anticipation surrounding Nioh 3, the upcoming title aims to build upon its predecessors’ achievements, offering fans a rich gaming experience. As the game approaches its release date, many are eager to see how the story unfolds and what innovations Team Ninja will introduce in this installment. This level of excitement indicates not only the game’s potential success upon launch but also the joy of access that will ultimately expand to a wider audience in the coming months.
