Compelling characters, Kyoto setting, and ultimate swordfighting action are core aspects of Onimusha: Way of the Sword.

It seem Samanosuke Akechi and Jubei Yagyu won't be taking the spotlight in the next game, but historical characters will still appear.

Expected enhancements may include improved resolution, performance, and new quality-of-life features.

The series' first new installment in nearly two decades, Onimusha: Way Of The Sword returns to a dark fantasy feudal Japan where samurai clash with the supernatural in cutting-edge combat.
