News: The Onimusha: Warlords remaster is now available so you can relive this PlayStation 2 classic in high definition.

Onimusha: Warlords is now available from Capcom on Xbox One, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch and Steam.

Onimusha: Warlords follows the battle-filled journey of samurai Samanosuke Akechi and ninja Kaede on a quest to save Princess Yuki from a legion of mysterious demons who have invaded Inabayama Castle. As the two travel throughout the castle, they unravel a malevolent plot by those who would serve the evil Nobunaga Oda, a feudal lord resurrected by the demons to fulfill their dark desires. Using sword-based combat, a magical Oni Gauntlet and puzzle solving, players need to call on both brawn and creativity to defeat the demonic foes and save Princess Yuki.

This release of Onimusha: Warlords captures the action and cinematic story of the original 2001 release, which achieved over 2 million copies sold worldwide, with updated features. The sword fighting action-adventure now includes high-definition graphics, widescreen display option, analog stick support, a readily available Easy Mode option, new soundtrack, and a new ‘honor’ in-game achievement system.
