Onimusha: Way of the Sword – A Triumphant Return

Capcom is bringing back the legendary Onimusha franchise with *Onimusha: Way of the Sword*, set to launch in 2026.

Set in the Edo Period, the game will immerse players in the historically rich setting of Kyoto, recreated with stunning detail.

Players will battle against supernatural creatures known as Genma, using an Oni Gauntlet that absorbs souls to grow stronger. While the protagonist remains under wraps, the gameplay promises visceral sword combat designed to deliver deep satisfaction without being overly punishing—making it accessible to action fans of all skill levels.
