Get ready to slice and dice your way through feudal Japan, gamers, because Onimusha: Way of the Sword is coming at you faster than a Samurai's strike! Originally slated for a late September release, Capcom has announced that this epic action-adventure sequel will now drop on September 4th. Mark your calendars, PC, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch 2 gamers, as this long-awaited series entry (the first since Onimusha: Dawn of Dreams in 2006) promises to deliver a historical gaming experience like no other. Set during the early Edo period in Kyoto, Onimusha: Way of the Sword left us utterly impressed during our recent hands-on session at Summer Game Fest. Want to get a taste of the action before diving in? A demo is available now on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC (Steam and Epic Games Store). And here's a sweet bonus: if you play the demo and purchase the game with save data on your hard drive, you'll receive the Kubi Akari charm in the full release! With Resident Evil Requiem enjoying great reviews and huge sales numbers earlier this year, it seems Capcom is riding high, and Onimusha: Way of the Sword looks set to continue that momentum. So gear up for a thrilling journey, gamers, because September 4th can't come soon enough! Ryan McCaffrey, IGN's executive editor of previews, is excited as ever, so catch his gaming insights on Podcast Unlocked and IGN Unfiltered. And remember, it's "Taylor ham," not "pork roll."
