A new entry in the Onimusha series, Onimusha: Way of the Sword, has been announced for PC and consoles. The game was revealed during The Game Awards with an intense trailer that showcased a familiar atmosphere and a vastly different gameplay style compared to previous entries.
The announcement of Onimusha: Way of the Sword comes as a surprise, especially since Onimusha: Warlords, a remaster of the first game, didn't make a significant splash. That said, while the remaster had its shortcomings, the game itself had great ideas when it came to "combat, leveling system, and puzzles, only requiring a few small tweaks to be truly excellent."
Onimusha: Way of the Sword is set to launch on PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, and Xbox Series S sometime in 2026.
