If you’ve been waiting the better part of a year for the PC version of Nioh 2, then we have some good news and some bad news. Being the Complete Edition, it includes all DLC packs and a bunch of new performance-enhancing features, including rebindable mouse and keyboard support, the choice between ultrawide and 4K resolution on up to 144Hz refresh rate monitors, HDR compatibility, and even a 120fps Mode. Unfortunately, it's also lumped with frame rate and interface issues that leave a bad taste in your mouth.
There aren't a great deal of settings in the game, but we've tinkered around with each one to see how you can improve Nioh 2's PC performance at different resolutions, whether you want to consistently hit 60fps or you want to aim for something a little higher without sacrificing its graphical fidelity. After all, atmosphere is integral to the experience in this Soulslike.
As we explored in our Nioh 2 PC edition gameplay preview, the game runs relatively smoothly when running around and exploring, but sees considerable drops of up to 20fps when engaging in combat and entering the Yokai realm. This issue isn't isolated to Dave's GTX 1070-powered rig - which already sits comfortably above Nioh 2's recommended specs - as it's also present on our test PC that's kitted out with an RTX 2080, Intel i9 9900K, and 32GB of RAM.
