Team Ninja has made Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty, the latest game to be released, available to add to Game Pass the same day, but they don’t think the same for their other games. During Nioh Game Pass, it feels like it will be waiting for a long time.
A remote possibility for Nioh Game Pass for now
Team Ninja recently announced that their game called Nioh is unlikely to appear on Xbox. The first Nioh game was released in 2017, both it and the 2020 sequel were rated by the authorities as the best action RPG. Clearly inspired by the Soulsborne series, the game has managed to combine fast-paced combat, interesting Japanese mythology and historical visuals. Moreover, he gives a wink to the real-life historical figure William Adams, one of the Western samurai.
Both Nioh games were very well received by gamers, but unfortunately they didn’t come for Xbox owners, they were only available to PlayStation and PC players. But gamers who want a classic Team Ninja experience on Xbox can do so with Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty . Wo Long, one of the two games Team Ninja is working on, was announced at the Xbox and Bethesda Games Showcase last June.
Interview with Team Ninja’s Yasuda & Yamagiwa
– both think the “linear” souls genre still has a lot of potential
– Yasuda is open to the idea of outsourcing a new Ninja Gaiden game as long as the quality is there
– “no possibility” of Nioh coming to Xboxhttps://t.co/zRYaxf4LeY pic.twitter.com/kPJnTwAaTS— Nibel (@Nibellion) September 27, 2022
Unlike Nioh games, Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty will be released on Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S. It will even come to Game Pass as it comes out in 2023. In an interview with Nioh Director Fumihiko Yasuda and Bloodborne Producer Masaaki Yamagiwa, both of whom are part of the Wo Long production team, they were asked if other Team Ninja games would be coming to Game Pass. But the response was negative, with Yasuda stating that “the likelihood of Nioh being on Xbox platforms is really small.”
