As gamescom 2019 is wrapping up, the industry is already preparing for the next big gaming convention. The Tokyo Game Show (TGS) will run from September 12 – September 15, 2019, and naturally Koei Tecmo will attend.

Koei Tecmo is responsible for the likes of Ninja Gaiden, Dead or Alive, Nioh, and the Dynasty Warriors series. After Nioh 2 was announced at E3 2018, the community has been excited to find out more about the release. With a playable version available at TGS, it might mean the game is nearing completion. Currently, a release date for Nioh 2 is unknown, but when we find out more, we’ll be sure to keep you in the loop.

The first game in the series, Nioh was successful for Koei Tecmo, reaching over 2 million copies sold. Evidently, the publisher deemed the first game to be profitable enough to warrant a sequel, as developer Team Ninja started working on Nioh 2 shortly after.
