Dateline: 7/1/2026

The release date for Onimusha: Way of the Sword has been pushed up to September 4th.

From Capcom:

Onimusha: Way of the Sword is the latest installment in Capcom’s classic Onimusha series. The first entry in 20 years, the all-new action game returns to a dark fantasy Japan where samurai clash with the supernatural. The story fuses history and myth, following the journey of Miyamoto Musashi, a samurai armed with a mystical Oni Gauntlet, as he battles demons invading Edo-period Kyoto. Onimusha: Way of the Sword features intense action that combines the series’ signature Issen and Soul Absorption mechanics with exhilarating swordplay that takes combat to new heights. The swordplay action game is now striking weeks sooner than anticipated, so players can leap into battle and absorb themselves in the Onimusha series’ long-awaited return as soon as possible. 

A demo for Onimusha: Way of the Sword is out now on the PlayStation Store, Xbox Store, Steam, and the Epic Games Store. In the demo, players can experience the game’s satisfying action while exploring an early slice of the game. Players with save data from the demo can also look forward to claiming a Kubi Akari charm as a special bonus when the full game arrives on September 4.
