Nioh on Xbox? Don’t expect it, says Team Ninja

Will you ever be able to play Team Ninjas Nioh games on Xbox? First of all, don’t count on it.

Both Nioh games were originally released for PlayStation 4 and PC, but never for Xbox consoles.

What are the odds for Nioh on Xbox?

“There’s actually nothing to say about that,” Nioh’s director Fumihiko Yasuda said in an interview VGC on.

“Right now there isn’t really a way to bring Nioh to Xbox platforms, but we hope Xbox fans will enjoy and look forward to Wo Long. That’s probably all we can say about it for now.”

The aforementioned Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty, on the other hand, will also be released for the Xbox and will even be included in the Game Pass launch, which is expected to have positive effects on Team Ninja.

“We’re very fortunate that so many players will have the chance to potentially try a team ninja title for the first time with Wo Long,” he says. “But just because it’s in Game Pass doesn’t mean we’ve changed anything else… It’s not really something we’ve done on the part of the development team.”

“But we think the availability of the game on Game Pass is very positive because so many new players can try the game and the online community can grow as a result, and then there are a lot more players to play with online or play with playing the multiplayer aspects of the game together, so we really hope that this keeps the community in a really good position and thriving.”

Yasuda also discusses the success of the Xbox in Team Ninja’s home market of Japan.

“The Xbox platform has a bigger presence in Japan: we’re definitely seeing that here. We think Game Pass is helping a lot more people learn about the Xbox platform – a lot more people coming here and playing games and being a part of it However, from our perspective, purely based on the numbers, Japan seems to be pretty much dominated by Nintendo consoles and the Switch, but yes, we definitely have the feeling in Japan that Xbox is trying to gain a stronger foothold with the current platform. “

Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty is slated for release in early 2023 on PlayStation 5, Xbox One, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.
