Capcom brings back the Onimusha series with Way of the Sword. The game stars Miyamoto Musashi, a famous Japanese swordsman from the 1600s. Players take control of this legendary warrior who must fight demons called Genma. The character design uses the face of actor Toshiro Mifune from classic samurai movies. Musashi speaks with a British accent during English dialogue.

The story follows Musashi as he tries to remove a magical gauntlet from his arm. He wants to get rid of its supernatural powers but must use them to fight evil creatures. The game takes place during Japan's Edo period when demons threaten the land. Musashi can sneak around enemies or fight them directly with his sword skills.

Combat works differently from earlier Onimusha games. Both players and enemies have health bars and stamina meters that change during fights. Breaking an enemy's guard opens them up for special attacks. Musashi can perform powerful Issen strikes that kill enemies with one hit. These moves require perfect timing but deal massive damage when successful.

The demo showed a fight between Musashi and his rival Sasaki Ganryu. Both warriors use magical gauntlets that give them special abilities. Capcom worked with real Japanese temples to make the game world look authentic. The game comes out in 2026 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and Steam.
