Nioh 3: Hell Rising presents the best map in the game so far, and it might just be Team Ninja's finest DLC to date
Nioh 3: Hell Rising is the first major content expansion for Team Ninja's 2026 soulslike. It doesn't completely reinvent the wheel, but the massive new map puts forth some of the most engaging and well-designed scenarios the series has seen to date. Reused bosses and eye-twitching late-game ambushes occasionally frustrate, but, if you loved the base game, Hell Rising won't disappoint.
Pros
- +A huge new map that's fun to explore
- +Hoko and Shield weapons are great additions
- +New boss fights are fantastic
- +Plenty of environmental variety
- +A handful of compelling side quests
Cons
- -Many other bosses are reused from the base game
- -Some late-game ambushes feel pretty cheap
