From tomorrow it will be officially available exclusively PS4 in digital and local stores the spiritual heir of Dark Souls but set in Feudal Japan, we are talking of course of Nioh, and today we want to share with you some tips on how to defeat some Bosses in the game.

Come Sconfiggere Derrick the Executioner – 1° Boss

The first boss you will have to confront is Derrick "the executor". He quickly land a couple of hits and dodge his attacks. When he transforms into the second form, wait for him to charge the rush against you and dodge sideways, then return to the attack.

 

How to defeat Onryoki - 2nd and 13th and 20th Boss

Team Ninja has decided to follow in the footsteps of Dark Souls proposing an extremely difficult game but so fascinating as to put the difficulty in the background. The second boss you will have to confront is Onryoki. It is important to study his attacks, he is a very powerful but also slow boss, using the low attack of any weapon added to the dodge, you will be able to win.

With a couple of successful hits you can defeat him. The boss will often go around with his chain when you attack him from behind, we remind you before leaving you to the video that parrying is equivalent to undoing any damage.

How to defeat Hino-enma - 3rd and 27th Boss

We come now to the third boss. His ranged attack from him is dangerous as he is able to paralyze you as well as take you out with a single shot, be prepared to dodge often. Try to stay a few meters from the boss, when his attack fails, land a couple of hits.

The spear is the ideal weapon as it allows you to hit the boss in the distance. Jump away and wait for it to sink with its combo without hitting you, after which repeat the attack from a distance. The boss doesn't have much health but he is extremely fast, dodge his attacks and you can have the upper hand.

How to Defeat Nue - 4th and 15th Boss

This is the fourth boss, also in this case as in all the others it is important to study his attacks. The biggest piece of advice we want and can give you is to use a low position spear. Wait for the boss to use the breath attack and then dodge to the left of his head, attack with quick, decisive blows in low guard. When he uses the breath attack he is defending, so you can deal enough damage. 

Below is the video:

How to defeat Tachibana Muneshige - 5th and 6th Boss

This is the fifth boss you will meet. Although he is a human he is particularly strong. The best strategy is to tackle it with the spear while keeping the guard in a medium or high position. Dodge his attacks and let him hit the void, then counter attack with your spear to hit him from afar. Once his ki is depleted, knock him down and attack him with the triangle.

Below is the video:

How to defeat Grande Centipede - 7th Boss

During the first phase, attach it to the legs quickly with quick attacks while in the second part to the shoulders. Parry his attacks and jump behind him again to start attacking him again. 

How to defeat Umi-bozu - 8th Boss

The first thing to do is to light all the bonfires as shown in the video, in doing so you will eliminate the followers of the boss. Our advice is to use the double katana in a low position, perhaps applying the element of fire to it. Thanks to this combination you will be able to inflict greater damage on the boss. If you want to defeat the boss very easily, before starting the fight make sure to light all the fires and don't forget to get as many fire-breathing masks as possible. At this point, start the fight and as soon as the boss tries to hit you with the mega beam, avoid it and use the fire breathing mask, repeat the procedure until you defeat him. 

How to defeat  Marume Nagayoshi – 9° e 18° Boss

Against this boss it is advisable to use the spear. Wait for the boss to hit the void and attack him with the triangle, by doing so you can inflict a certain amount of damage to his Ki. If it drops below 30%, increase your attacks to defeat him. Once on the ground you can perform a final combo on him.

How to defeat Hattori Hanzo – 10° e 19° Boss

We have reached the tenth Boss, even if it is human, that does not mean that it is not demanding. Use the double Katana in the low position, dodge behind him when he attacks and charge him after breaking his guard. Once defeated, use the finisher by pressing the triangle.

How to defeat Joro-Gumo  – 11° Boss

The Eleventh Boss awaits you. Joro Humo is stronger than he looks. Attach it to your shoulders to hit the glowing object placed on your back and repeat this until it starts crawling to protect your back. Attack him from the front and dodge when he attacks you. With a couple of determined attacks you will be able to defeat her. Be very careful because when health decreases, it becomes more dangerous.

A piece of advice we can give you is to use holy water to quickly recover Ki and the ability (if you have it) to create and use shuriken capable of slowing down the enemy, after that proceed as mentioned and you will be able to defeat it.

How to defeat Yuki-onna  – 12° Boss

If you have come this far you cannot be charmed by Yuki's beauty even though he is a boss. The enemy has a lot of health but keep in mind that he is at the same time very strong especially in close combat. We recommend that you use ranged weapons such as a bow or shotgun. If you want to try your hand at close combat, get ready for dodging.

How to defeat Naomasa – 13° Boss

And here we are at the thirteenth Boss. If you have survived Yuki it is time to face Naomasa. We recommend that you purchase the spearfall ability for the spear. Use this weapon in the high position together with the Spearfall when your KI is at maximum to hit the opponent. Keep doing this to get the best of him.

How to defeat White Tiger - 16th Boss

It is time to face the white tiger of Malaysia or rather of Japan. A big and cracked winged beast as they say. If you have come this far armed to the teeth, you will not have much difficulty otherwise be prepared to succumb. We advise you to use the Ranged rod and hit her as hard as she can to overcome the first part of the fight, obviously dodge her attacks to avoid making a bad end. The boss is agile so don't give him a way to move otherwise it's over for you. 

How to defeat Giant Toad - 17th and 24th Boss

This giant frog awaits you inside one of the game's buildings for the 17th battle. It is not difficult to defeat but it is very agile, make sure you are equally quick in both dodging and attacking. This type of boss can be tackled from close range, just hit him repeatedly and dodge around it to get the better of it. Avoid his attacks and you will defeat him in no time.

How to Defeat Ogress - 21st Boss 

This boss is very fast, attacks from a distance by breathing fire and is capable of jumping long and great distances. We advise you to attack him from close range whenever possible using the weapon pointed downwards. 

How to Defeat Honda Tadakatsu - 22nd and 25th Boss

This is a human boss who should not be taken lightly. We advise you to use the weapon held on the square for the duration of the fight, destroying the precious stones scattered in the level and avoiding his quick attacks. The boss like many others must be dealt with again later. 

How to Defeat Okatsu - 23rd Boss

Although she looks docile, in reality this girl is terribly fast. Use the weapon held on the square and hit her from close range, avoiding her quick attacks, don't give her a chance to charge you from afar.

How to defeat Saika Maoichi - 26th Boss

Despite being a human boss, don't take the fight lightly. The boss is able to fly around the scenery with his wings, due to the presence of fire the battlefield is limited, hit him from close range using the low weapon (X) and avoid his charges. 

How to defeat Otani Yoshitsugu - 28th Boss

This boss is particularly slow in its movements as it is suspended in midair, specialized in close-range attacks and is able to fly towards you at a decent speed, with some dodging and many attacks you will be able to defeat it.

How to Defeat Shima Sakon - 29th Boss

Despite being a human boss, this Samurai could give you a lot of trouble, it is advisable to use a spear on a high or intermediate position and hit him repeatedly (as long as the Ki allows it), avoiding his close attacks. Unlike other Bosses, it is not fast, so you can confuse it in no time. 

How to defeat Gasha-dokuro - 30th Boss

The confrontation with the monsters is back, the thirtieth boss is anything but pleasant. To defeat him you have to hit the weak points while avoiding the enemies. First load his feet with a series of blows using a sword or spear in a high position, once the lower skeletal body is weakened, head up and hit his head. 

How to defeat Saika Magoichi - 31st Boss

If you have survived the previous boss, you have to contend with Saika Magoichi, a human enemy who will give you a hard time. The fight takes place in a sort of dojo, the enemy is equipped with wings, which allow him to rise in the air and hit you with explosives as well as being quick in the attacks, avoid the fiery shots and hit him by turning around him with the weapon in position low. 

How to defeat Ishida Mitsunari - 32nd Boss

The fight with this boss takes place in an open but restricted environment. Avoid his powerful ranged attacks and hit him hard when the opportunity arises. Wait for his Kii to run out to deal damage.

How to Defeat Obsidian Samurai - 33rd Boss

We find ourselves again in a sort of Dojo against a black samurai, his movements are not very fast due to the weapon he has, the trick is to hit him as soon as he runs out of his Kii and then wait for him to make his moves, you can alternatively hit him from behind once he has delivered his blow to the void.

 

How to defeat Oda Nobunaga - 34th Boss

It is time to confront Oda Nobunaga. The combat takes place inside a circular dojo, due to the small size of the scenario you will often find yourself in the vicinity of the boss. Avoid his attacks and hit him with a spear (possibly) in medium position. Avoid both being too far from the Boss and close to it, so go around it and hit it as soon as you get a chance.

How to Defeat Kelley - 35th Boss

In this fight you will have to deal with the original form of Kelley, it is advisable to attack him from close range with a spear in medium position. The boss disappears continuously, avoid his attacks and wait for the right moment to hit him.

This is not a particularly difficult boss.

How to defeat Hozoin Inei Spear - 38th Boss

This is the final Boss of the game, defeating him is not a walk in the park. The fight takes place on the roof of a large Japanese building.
