The Onimusha series has long been considered one of Capcom's key brands, and fans have been waiting for its return. In 2026, Onimusha: Way of the Sword will be released, which should restore the shine to the brand known since the PlayStation 2 era.
Since the first announcement, Way of the Sword has evoked strong emotions in players. Capcom promises a game with brutal battles, atmospheric locations, and challenges that will reignite interest in the series.
At Tokyo Game Show 2025, Capcom showed a long gameplay demo, allowing a detailed look at the new story. The material confirms that this is a full-fledged slasher where every hit and every decision on the battlefield matters.
The recording shows many fights — the main character destroys opponents using precise counterattacks, parries, and spectacular techniques. An important element of the battle is reducing the enemy's stamina. When the energy bar drops to zero, you can finish off the enemy with one spectacular blow. This makes the battles both challenging and fair.
