Team Ninja's soulslike formula is one of the most demanding in the genre and Nioh 3 looks to push that further on PS5 hardware built for it. Demon's Souls takes the soulslike slot on the main list because it has the track record and the visual prestige. Nioh 3 is the one for players who want more of that challenge from a different direction, with faster stamina management and the series' signature weapon variety. It is early days. But if you are a Nioh fan or a hardcore soulslike player, this is the PS5 exclusive on the near-term watchlist worth keeping an eye on.
