Onimusha Way of the Sword

Capcom has released a new trailer for its upcoming action game Onimusha: Way of the Sword. The trailer was released during Summer Games Fest 2025, and showed off quite a bit of gameplay. Check it out below.

While the trailer does have some bits of story, especially at the beginning and end, most of it involves showing off its intense combat where protagonist Miyamoto Musashi can take on demonic enemies in melee combat.

Along with using the katana, players will also get some magical abilities, one of which was shown off in the trailer as being a pair of heavy maces that can seemingly cause breaks in reality to cause massive damage.

Throughout the trailer, there is also an emphasis on showing off the game’s parrying system, with the hero parrying several different kinds of attacks, from simple melee attacks, to energy balls that can be bounced back to the enemy that shot them, and even heavy attacks from bosses.

Onimusha: Way of the Sword is slated for release on PC, PS5 and Xbox series X/S in 2026.
