How to Play Co-Op with Friends or Randoms

Nioh 3, developed by Koei Tecmo and Team Ninja, brings thrilling combat and cooperative gameplay to new heights. If you’re wondering how to team up with friends or random players, this guide will walk you through everything you need to know about the multiplayer modes, unlocking co-op, and customizing your experience.

How Does Multiplayer Work in Nioh 3?

In Nioh 3, there are three main multiplayer modes, each designed for different cooperative play styles. Here’s a breakdown of each mode:

1. Summon Visitor

This mode allows you to request help from other players during a mission.

You can offer two Ochoko Cups at a shrine to summon a visitor.
Visitors are players who have already completed the mission you need help with.
Benefit: Enemy strength remains unchanged, making missions easier to complete.
The session ends when the mission objective is completed.

2. Become a Visitor

This mode lets you assist other players in completing their missions.

As a visitor, you cannot open chests or doors but will earn Ochoko Cups as a reward.
It’s a great way to help others while collecting resources for yourself.

3. Expeditions

Expeditions are the most comprehensive co-op mode, allowing players to progress through the story together.

Story progression is tied to the host’s world.
Includes an Assist Gauge that decreases when a player dies. If the gauge is depleted, the mission fails.
Players can revive teammates or themselves (if the gauge isn’t empty).
Praying at a shrine restores all players’ health but respawns enemies.
Successful expeditions offer bonuses like increased Amrita and Glory for consecutive missions.

Does Nioh 3 Have Crossplay Between PS5 and PC?

Unfortunately, Nioh 3 does not support crossplay between PlayStation 5 and PC. Players can only join games with others on the same platform.

What Are Ochoko Cups in Nioh 3?

Ochoko Cups are essential for initiating multiplayer sessions, as they are required to summon visitors.

These small ceramic cups are traditionally used for drinking sake.
You can hold up to 9,999 Ochoko Cups in your inventory.
How to Obtain Ochoko Cups:
- Interact with Revenants (red graves) and defeat them to earn at least one cup.
- Defeat specific enemies and bosses throughout the game.

Tips for Maximizing Multiplayer in Nioh 3

Communicate with your teammates: Use quick signals or messages to coordinate strategies during expeditions.
Stock up on Ochoko Cups: Regularly interact with Revenants to maintain a healthy supply.
Pick experienced visitors: Use filters to match with skilled players for challenging missions.
Pray at shrines strategically: While shrines restore health, they also respawn enemies, so plan accordingly.

The multiplayer modes in Nioh 3 offer an exciting and strategic way to enjoy the game with friends or random players. Whether you’re summoning help, assisting others, or embarking on expeditions together, there are plenty of ways to experience the game’s challenges as a team.
