At "Koei Tecmo LIVE! in TGS 2020," a demonstration of the new weapon type " Tekko " that will be added as the second DLC for " Nioh 2," a game about warring states, monsters, and death scheduled for distribution on October 15, 2020, was shown.
It was also announced that a life-size plushie of the cute and dependable character that Niou fans have been waiting for is now being made.
What is the performance of the new "Tekko" weapon?
The new "Tekko" weapon, which was unveiled for the first time, is a weapon that sacrifices reach for an overwhelmingly large number of hands to taunt the opponent.
Since it has almost no reach, the key will be how closely the user can get in contact with the enemy.
From the playback, it appears that the basic strategy is to attack by switching between upper and lower stances to reduce the opponent's stamina.
Some of the techniques can be used to attack while closing the distance to the opponent at once, so it is important to make good use of them.
Since the fighters often fight in close proximity to their opponents, light armor that is easy to avoid seems to go well with them.
Shinsubori" finally appears as a plush toy!
During the live broadcast, it was announced that " Shunekosuri," the cute and dependable sidekick of "Nioh 2," is now being made as a life-size plush toy.
The plushie of "Sune-Kosuri" that suddenly appeared in front of Koh Shibusawa during the broadcast was made at the launch of Nioh 2, and the plushie of "Sune-Kosuri" being made this time is said to be a little smaller than the previous one.
The shin rubbing plushie is said to be a bit smaller than the one produced this time.
No release date or purchase price has been announced, but we are looking forward to cuddling the plushie a lot when it goes on sale.
A special program featuring gorgeous guests will be broadcast on October 14, 2020, to celebrate the second DLC release.
A special program to commemorate the second DLC, "Heian-kyo Debiden," which will be distributed on October 15, 2020, will be broadcast on October 14, 2020, starting at 9:00 p.m. The program will feature guest appearances by the idol group Denpagumi.

There are still many things that have not been announced yet, such as modes that go beyond the existing high difficulty levels and the additional armor and monsters, so be sure to tune in so you don't miss out.
The broadcast can be seen from [Misuzu Furukawa/Kengo Kawanishi/Otsuichi appearances] Game "Nioh 2" Special Program #4.
You can still play "Nioh 2", even newcomers can start playing now with a sale!
Nioh 2 continues to gain momentum with new modes and a new storyline set in the Heian Period, which will be added in "Heian-kyo Ukemaden" to be released on October 15, 2020.
With only half a month to go until the release of Nioh 2, it is time to do what you can to upgrade your equipment while you still can.
I personally am curious about the identity of the new female character whose identity is still unknown.
The most famous female character in the Heian period who is associated with yokai is Suzuka Gozen, but it could be someone who is a bit off the beaten path, so learning more about the Heian period may help you immerse yourself in the story.
In addition, the downloadable version of "Nioh 2" for PlayStation 4 is currently on sale for 30% off the regular price until October 6, 2020.
