![]() These are helpful attacks, although they are tied to a specific weapon that you have to wield. Similar to Nioh, the game also had special attacks called Martial Arts. If you deflect this attack perfectly, this will greatly reduce their spirit gauge, which will allow you to attack enemies with greater force. When you see a glowing red attack, this is called a critical blow. If you are able to reduce it, you can perform a great fatal blow and deal a ton of damage. When you are fighting bosses and/or enemies, they also have a spirit gauge, and your goal is to reduce it. If you successfully deflect or attack enemies, the spirit attack will use up the blue gauge making your attacks stronger than normal. On the flip side of this, there is another blue gauge on the screen too. The annoying thing about this gimmick is that if it’s filled up, you cannot use magic or dodge until it cools down. The game revolves around a spirit gauge mechanic, and if you spam magic or dodge, the orange spirit gauge will fill up. If you press Triangle, this is a stronger attack called a spirit attack. Your basic attacks are when you press the Square button, and you sadly cannot execute different combos. In terms of gameplay, Team Ninja has somewhat streamlined the combat system compared to the Nioh games.

The visuals are much sharper, and the game loads really fast. Graphically, this game is a step up from the Nioh games, especially if you are playing the PS5 version as I did.

Although it is essentially another Souls-like clone, the game does include some controversial new features to make it feel more difficult than the Nioh games. Instead of predictably releasing Nioh 3 in 2023, Team Ninja decided to develop a brand-new game called Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty. Team Ninja is one studio that has seen success with Souls-like games, releasing two Nioh games and last year’s Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin. Due to the popularity of Souls-like games, many other developers have tried to mimic this success. ![]() Developer FromSoftware invented the Souls genre when it released Demon’s Souls for the PS3 back in 2009. ![]()
