Onimusha: Way of the Sword

Onimusha: Way of the Sword marks a long-overdue return for Capcom’s supernatural samurai franchise, currently slated for a 2026 release on PC and modern consoles. Following a lengthy hiatus for the series, this new entry shifts away from the fixed camera angles of the PlayStation 2 era to embrace a fluid, over-the-shoulder perspective. Players step into the sandals of a disgraced ronin in a demon-infested Sengoku-period Japan, utilizing the signature soul-absorbing gauntlet to upgrade elemental blades. Capcom appears to be leveraging the RE Engine to push high-fidelity swordplay, blending historical sword techniques with the visceral, fast-paced monster hunting that defined the original trilogy’s legacy.
