    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The DLC is short, it reuses older maps, new enemies are annoying. Most submissions are just about fighting a single OP boss or waves of enemies. Instead of the splitstaff they could've just added a naginata which at least is an existing weapon. Expand

    Horrible it would be nice if I could ACTUALLY access the DLC. And yes I have beaten the game, I have tryed all the methods listed online to access the dlc but it still keeps saying buy it when I own the season pass. Don't waste your time with garbage that won't work.

    Nioh 2 The Tengu Disciple adds a new chapter and hours of gameplay, with some pretty food challenge, which makes it an interesting add-on for those who want to keep on playin Nioh 2.

    All in all, Nioh 2: The Tengu's Disciple is a solid piece of DLC. It doesn't break the mold, and it doesn't offer much that's new. What it does offer is more of the enjoyable gameplay that made Nioh 2 so fun. The new weapon is a nice bonus, even if it isn't for every player, and there's about 9-10 hours of content here. It's only for Nioh die-hards, but at $10, it's easily worth the price.

    Although a bit light on main missions, the amount of new content on offer here makes The Tengu’s Disciple a must for anyone who enjoyed the base game. The new weapon is a blast to use and the new difficulty ensures that those players who had capped out all of their gear and explored all regions fully will now have an incentive to play through not just the new content but also previous missions as well. Hopefully Team Ninja continue to support Nioh 2 with more content that is as high a quality as this is, and, going off of their past record, I feel confident in saying that I think that they will knock it out of the park… Let’s just hope that the wait is nowhere near as long between releases this time. Nioh 2 is already one of the best games of the year and this first DLC pack just serves to cement it in that position.
