Cool, a new Onimusha game was announced
Cool, a new Onimusha game was announced
I played through the series for the first time earlier this year so this was nice timing
It's coming out in 2026, 20 years after the last game. Feeling bad for the people who've been waiting since 2006
Looks slower and more brutal than the old games. What are the odds this will be some sort of souls-like? Isn't that most action-adventure games these days?
Definitely gave me a Souls-like/Sekiro feel, but also felt like they're trying to go back to 1s atmosphere but "more", if that makes sense. Like, a darker, heavier feel to everything, leaning in to the visual horror aspects.
I actually would not mind if they went back to the first game's origins as samurai Resident Evil and embraced the horror aspects. That's not to say I didn't enjoy the hack and slash series it developed into but that concept is incredibly cool to me
I would love that. Warlords has always carried that darker, heavier feeling for me, and really makes it stand out against the others(though I do enjoy them, especially 3. Glorious use of Jean Reno).
It also feels like a majorly underutilized genre. We get Feudal action games, stealth games, but how often do you come across "Samurai Horror"?
