Nioh 2: The Complete Edition, or Nioh 2, is an action RPG developed by Team Ninja and published by Koei Tecmo.
Nioh 2 serves as both a prequel and a sequel to the first game, with some key differences from its predecessor. These include a character creator, as opposed to a predefined protagonist as seen previously, and the addition of supernatural yōkai spirit forms and abilities.[1] It also sees the return of cooperative multiplayer with the new addition of summoning other players' characters as AI-controlled allies.[2]
The game released on February 5, 2021 and is available from the Steam platform. The PC version was announced via the game's official Twitter account in November 2020, and detailed features such as full keyboard and mouse support, HDR, ultra-widescreen display and high frame rate support. All of the downloadable content available for the original console release is included.
Reviews around the game's release date praised the quality of the game's conversion to PC, however, there was criticism related to instances of poor performance of particle rendering, and little improvement in graphical fidelity over the original console release of the game.[3][4]
The developers indicated that future updates for the game would include keyboard and mouse button prompts and Nvidia's DLSS technology, with the latter arriving in an update in the weeks following the game's release.[5][6]

Issues unresolved
Game slows down at low frame rates
- The game speed slows down when the frame rate drops below 30 FPS.[12][13]
UI drifts after loading a mission at certain resolutions
- The game UI drifts by a small cumulative amount every time a mission is started, until it finally flips and stabilizes. It only happens with the resolution of 3840x1440. A game restart is required to reset it.[14]
Issues fixed
Frame rate drops during combat
- Frame rates during combat encounters may see drops depending on the amount of particle effects on screen.[15][16][17]
Set the Effect Quality setting to Low.[18]
|
Mouse inputs randomly swap function in game and menus
- Mouse functions are swapped, light attacks usually also cause dodge whilst heavy attacks trigger Yokai Shift, mouse functions in menus is also altered.
This issue is primarily caused by using "order emotes" functionality of the gesture menu.
Avoid using "Switch mode" (default MMB/scroll wheel press) while in gesture menu.
|
Low FPS on Nvidia graphics cards
- Nvidia GPU users may experience lower frame rates compared to equivalent or weaker AMD GPUs.[19]
Set the in-game frame rate cap to 60.[20]
|
Game crashes to desktop on Windows 7
Create support file[citation needed]
|
- Go to
%WINDIR%\System32\ .
- Create a copy of
xinput1_3.dll and rename it to xinput1_4.dll .
|
Low quality textures when using DLSS
- Nioh 2 mistakenly uses the lower DLSS rendering resolution to determine which mips to display
Manually modify LOD bias[21]
|
- Open Nvidia Profile Inspector
- Within the Profiles drop-down menu, select "Nioh 2 The Complete Edition"
- Under the "4 - Texture Filtering" section, modify the "Texture filtering - LOD Bias (DX)" value (by default,
0.0000 ) to -0.5000 (or any other negative value of your choice)
- Modify the "Texture filtering - Negative LOD bias" value to "Allow"
- Select "Apply changes"
