by

A new trailer for *Onimusha: Way of the Sword* shown at Tokyo Game Show 2025 highlights the game’s story, centering on Miyamoto Musashi and the characters he encounters. While Musashi will still be a skilled swordsman, the trailer suggests that unlocking the full potential of his powerful gauntlet will require help from several allies.

The *Onimusha* series was most popular in the early 2000s, with four main games and several spin-offs released between 2001 and 2006. After that, it seemed like Capcom, the publisher and developer, had forgotten about it. However, a remastered version of *Onimusha 2: Samurai’s Destiny* came out in May and excited fans, both old and new. This followed an announcement in 2024 that a new *Onimusha* game is in development and scheduled for release in 2026, signaling a major revival for the series.
