Koei Tecmo announced Nioh 2’s latest patch over on the game’sSteam page, with the headline fix being “added support for keyboard & mouse input icons”. To turn this setting on, players need to head into “System - Keyboard & Mouse Settings - Control Icons”. And voilá, the correct keyboard and mouse button prompts will appear when using this control scheme, as opposed to PlayStation’s crosses and circles.

I always thought it odd that Nioh 2 -a game that demands precise movements and complex inputs during combat -lacked the correct button prompts when using keyboard and mouse. It seemed like such a huge oversight. Now, at least, those who prefer the clicking and clacking can do so without having to translate button combinations.
I tried playing Nioh 2 with keyboard and mouse briefly, and I cannot fathom how one does so effectively. Even with extensive practice, I feel like I’d be blundering to my death for eternity. The controller is still very much my samurai instrument of choice.
And if you’ve not tried Nioh 2 on PC, I spent a lot of time with it for myNioh 2 review, and can say with confidence that it’s a great action-RPG. Especially if you enjoy satisfying combat, as I think it’s “effortlessly cool - no matter what weapon you choose, or how good you are at stringing together combos”.
