Onimusha: Way of the Sword marks the return of Capcom's samurai action series after two decades away. The action-RPG relocates the franchise to Japan's Edo period, centering on the historical figure Miyamoto Musashi as its protagonist. While standalone in narrative, the game incorporates thematic homages to its predecessors while reimagining familiar enemy types with fresh variations.
The game has been in active pre-release promotion ahead of its September 2026 launch. Capcom released a PC benchmark tool allowing players to test system compatibility, and handled a Switch 2 preorder correction after early cancellations. Coverage has focused on the developer's design philosophy, including the shift away from puzzle boxes in favor of larger environmental puzzles, the removal of minigames, and efforts to make the title accessible to a broad audience. Producer Akihito Kadowaki has discussed the lengthy development timeline, attributing delays to assembling the necessary team for the revival.
