Capcom has released a 10-minute playthrough video of the Onimusha: Way of the Sword demo shown at Gamescom 2025 last week. The same demo will be featured at PAX West 2025 in Seattle, Washington from August 29 to September 1.
The video description reads, “Musashi heads to the iconic Kiyomizu-dera to investigate the appearance of Malice in the area, but a whole legion of Genma await him as well as a familiar face to him.”
Onimusha: Way of the Sword is due out for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and PC via Steam in 2026.
