Capcom presented a spectacular action trailer of Onimusha: Way of the Sword, which was dedicated to the main character of the game.

Here's What We Know

Viewers were introduced to a warrior named Miyamoto Musashi, whose appearance resembles the legendary Japanese actor Toshiro Mifune, who was the star of films about samurai.

The protagonist was an ordinary man who found himself in Kyoto at the moment when demons started attacking the city from underground and he had to take up arms.

The protagonist will become the new owner of the Oni Gauntlet, a mystical artefact that gives its owner the power to kill Genma monsters from the underworld and absorb their souls.

The clip shows off some colourful battle scenes as well.

Capcom has previously stated that Onimusha: Way of the Sword will offer a new take on the franchise and bring it closer to modern standards.

When We Can Expect It

Onimusha: Way of the Sword is expected to release in 2026 on PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.
