Team Ninja, the studio behind hits like Ninja Gaiden and Rise of the Ronin, continues its prolific output with the upcoming release of Nioh 3. Slated to launch on February 6, 2026, for PlayStation 5, the game is now available for preorder. A standout offer is the Nioh 3 Steelbook Launch Edition, priced at just $70. This special version comes with a bonus DLC pack for those who secure their copy early.
Preorder incentives vary depending on whether you choose a physical or digital copy. The physical Nioh 3 Steelbook Launch Edition includes an exclusive Steelbook case adorned with unique key art and a slipcase cover. It also bundles the Lucky Tanuki Netsuke and Kusanagi Netsuke Charm accessories. This particular edition is produced in limited quantities, making preordering the most reliable way to obtain it. A standard physical edition is available but does not include the steel case or the extra in-game items.
There is also an Early Purchase bonus applicable to all versions. Anyone who buys a physical or digital copy of Nioh 3 by February 19, 2026, will receive the Hellfrost Warrior and Hellfrost Ninja armor and attire sets. For digital preorders specifically, players get those Early Purchase items plus three additional bonuses: the Hellfire Warrior Attire set, Hellfire Ninja Attire Set, and the Scampuss Furball Netsuke charm.
For gamers who prefer digital libraries or are playing on PC, the Nioh 3 Digital Deluxe Edition is available for $110. This premium package contains the base game and the Nioh 3 Season Pass, which grants access to two post-launch DLC expansions. It also comes packed with extra content, including the Chijiko Netsuke Charm, Kodama Netsuke Charm, and the Infernal Weapons Set featuring 14 weapon types. All Early Purchase and Digital Preorder bonuses are included as well. Preorders are being accepted on the PlayStation Store and Steam.
Nioh 3 builds upon the foundation of its predecessors as a fast-paced third-person action RPG. Players assume the role of Tokugawa, a fully customizable character battling the Yokai that infest a dark samurai world. A major new feature is the ability to choose between two distinct combat styles at any time. The Samurai style focuses on measured, powerful strikes and introduces a new parry system. It retains the Ki Pulse mechanic for stamina management and adds an Arts Proficiency gauge that unlocks devastating finishing moves. Conversely, the Ninja path emphasizes agility, offering faster attacks, evasive maneuvers, and the use of ninja tools like the Mist ability, which creates a distracting clone. Returning fans will recognize mechanics such as guardian spirit transformations, Soul Cores, and Yokai abilities.
For those looking to experience the series from the beginning, a compelling deal is available. The Nioh Collection, which includes remastered versions of both Nioh (2017) and Nioh 2 (2020) with all their expansion packs, is currently priced at $34.80 on PS5 at Amazon, a significant discount from its original $70 price tag. This is a limited-time offer.
The early 2026 release calendar for Souls-like action RPGs is quite busy. Code Vein 2 is set to launch on January 30, 2026, for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S, also at a $70 price point. Its preorder bonuses include the Twin Fangs of the Lone Wolf weapon and Forma Face Paint cosmetic. Players who opt for the Digital Deluxe, Ultimate, or Collector’s Editions will gain 72-hour early access to the game.
