Nioh 3 performance thread (share your FPS, specs and settings here)

So a lot of folks are worried about performance, and thankfully, watching some streams of the demo while I wait for it to download, it looks like performance is pretty good so far, at least in the tutorial section.

So I had the thought, let's share specs, performance and settings here so that others can work out how well the game will run on their machines before diving in.

My demo download is still going, so it will be a little while before I can share, but figured some of you with faster internet can beat me to it in the meantime :D

Ideally, please share the following:

PC Specs:

GPU (please clarify if using desktop or laptop variant):
CPU (please clarify if using desktop or laptop variant):
RAM:
Storage:
Operating System:

Average FPS:
1% low FPS (if you have a setup to record this):

Graphics settings being used (especially any upscaling/FG - please also be sure to share your resolution):

I play it on Rog Ally and it runs perfect even on dock mode

I'm running 2560 x 1440 at native resolution (DLAA), no upscaling. I've injected the latest version of DLSS and am using preset K. Graphics settings are set to maximum. I turned off motion blur, chromatic aberration, and noise filter.

From the very beginning of the game to the first shrine, my FPS was mostly hovering in the high 70s and low 80s sometimes going up to the low 90s in less intense areas with a 1% low of 60. I didn't notice any shader compilation or traversal stutter.

For a Team Ninja game I was expecting far worse, especially after Wo Long and Rise of the Ronin. I've only played for about 15 minutes so it could definitely get worse, but so far it's fine.

Wait you managed to get FPS higher than 60? I seem to have a locked 60fps as the max fps setting I can seem to configure in the graphics. Did I do something wrong?

I will report my performance soon, so far I am pegged at 60fps with no dips at all with everything maxed out 4k DLAA HDR (RTX 5090 9950x3d 128gb DDR5), but I haven't played enough yet and I want to unlock my framerate first.

This makes me hopeful.

I only checked out the character generation and didn't get stable 60 fps there with completely maxed settings, native 1080p with a 5700X3D and a 9070XT.

i can, surprisingly, play rise of the ronin at 60fps with mid-range settings before framegen. i cant even run this at 30 lowest settings with no steam overlay or any other programs running..

didnt even get past the ninja style tutorial before i gave up, i expect the openworld would tank me to literally unplayable levels of performance. game also runs oddly slow /clunky as if framegen were on without the proper specs

Game runs horribly, even on lowest settings. Do not post your performance in this thread until you reach the first open world area. My game ran fine until then. Now it's unplayable.

You need a monitor at 120hz+ to get the 120 FPS option.

My monitor is 100 hz, but I only have access to 60

Runs great on max settings when it's not freezing for half a second at a time. From the bug thread it sounds like I'm lucky to have made it past shaders. Linux bros may be taking an L on this one

Operating System: Win 11

1440p DLSS Quality, no frame gen, standard graphics.
75-90fps average depending on area. 1% low minus ~15 fps from average. Very smooth gameplay, haven't noticed a single stutter.

If things change as I progress I will update.

Graphically looks decent and runs pretty well. Glad they finally spent the extra effort to optimize the game.

High settings. 5800x + 7900XTX and i had dips from 120 to 90 and i havent reached the open areas yet. Pretty concerning

I'm not in the open world yet but I am getting decent FPS depending on settings (RTX 5090, 90-150 FPS) but no matter how high I get the FPS, the game still does not look smooth. It feels like there's something wrong with the camera or other movement to make it feel rough.

I'm using gsync (VRR) and it's not stutters, but the game does not LOOK like it's running at a high frame rate. It feels like 60fps-ish or less due to the rough camera/character animation... and it's the same regardless if I'm using frame gen or not.

better than RoRm, probably because it doesnt support ray tracing. But looks better overall but still faces the same frame pacing issue like all Katana engine game running at anything that is not 60fps. At least FG works this time and not decreasing the frame rate like RoR.
