Capcom reboots Onimusha and it looks like the Resident Evil remakes [Video]

Onimusha: Way Of The Sword has had a surprise reveal at The Game Awards 2024 and it’s looking pretty spectacular.

They’ve been promising for years that they’d use their recent run of success to revive some of their older franchises and now Capcom has finally made good on that vow, not just with a new Ōkami sequel, but also Onimusha: Way Of The Sword.

The reveal trailer at The Game Awards 2024 was quite brief, so it’s not actually clear if it’s a sequel or not, but given it’s been 18 years (20 by the time the game is out) since the last mainline entry in the franchise we’re going to assume Capcom is going for a relatively fresh start here.

It might be brief, but the announcement trailer seems to at least be partially real-time, with visuals very reminiscent of the Resident Evil remakes, or to put it another way the game looks amazing.
