Team Ninja continues its annual streak of releases, and 2026 is no exception. Nioh 3 now has a confirmed release date for February next year, promising another exciting installment in the beloved action-RPG series. Fans can also rejoice that the game will launch simultaneously on PC and PS5, rather than being a timed PlayStation exclusive.
Nioh 3 Pre-Order Bonus
Pre-ordering Nioh 3 on PC or PS5 grants the Hellfire Equipment Set and Scampuss Furball Netsuke.
The Hellfire Equipment Set includes:
- Hellfire Warrior Armor set
- Hellfire Ninja Attire set
Additionally, early purchases made by February 19, 2026 (13 days after launch) will also include the Hellfrost Equipment Set, which contains armor sets for both the Warrior and Ninja forms.
These bonuses are similar to previous Team Ninja titles like Nioh 2 and Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty, offering visually appealing armor sets. The game’s transmog system allows you to wear these outfits regardless of your level, making the pre-order and early purchase bonuses particularly attractive.
Nioh 3 Digital Deluxe Edition
The Digital Deluxe Edition of Nioh 3 includes:
- Nioh 3 base game
- Nioh 3 Season Pass
- Season Pass bonus: “Chijiko Netsuke Charm” (accessory)
- Infernal Weapons Set (14 types)
- Kodama Netsuke Charm (accessory)
The main value of this edition lies in the Season Pass, which grants access to two upcoming DLC expansions scheduled for September 2026 and February 2027. Considering the quality of previous Nioh expansions, these are expected to be well worth it.
While the additional weapons and charms are nice, they may feel visually busy for some players. The deluxe edition is priced at $110, compared to the $70 base edition, making it a worthwhile investment mainly for the upcoming DLC content.
Nioh 3 Release Date
Nioh 3 launches on February 6, 2026, for PC and PS5, published by KOEI TECMO.
Although the series remains absent from Xbox, likely due to previous contractual agreements, it’s exciting that Nioh 3 will not be a timed PS5 exclusive. PC players will finally get day-one access to this highly anticipated title.
