Details on Nioh's upcoming beta

And there's a new gameplay trailer.

Nioh had a rather successful Alpha demo earlier this year and now Koei Tecmo have released some details about Nioh's beta demo.

The demo will be available on the PlayStation Store from August 23 until September 6. Players of the demo will also have the chance to get the "Mark of the Conqueror" DLC (which players may already have acquired in the alpha) and the new "Mark of the Strong" DLC.

Here are the official details of the beta demo from Koei Tecmo:

The new Nakatsu stage leads protagonist William along a treacherous mountain path to a deep cave, where he must prevail against human and supernatural enemies alike—including the seductive Hinoenma, a dangerous Yokai under the guise of a beautiful woman. Defeating the Nakatsu stage will award players with the Mark of the Strong DLC, which will be available when the game launches.

As well as the details of the beta, Koei Tecmo released a new gameplay trailer at Gamescom, which shows off the combat, enemies and some of the improvements made since the alpha.
