Onimusha WS Is Now Available! Launch Trailer Reveals the Story and Gameplay

Set in “Kyoto” during the early Edo period, where bizarre, monstrous creatures known as “Genma” run rampant, this is a brand-new entry in the “Onimusha” series that follows the exploits of the protagonist, “Miyamoto Musashi,” who has gained the power of a demon.
Players can enjoy realistic swordplay, strategic maneuvering, and an exhilarating experience.

Use the power of the demon to wipe out your enemies

An awakening that grants power beyond human comprehension

Miyamoto Musashi, awakened by the power of the Oni, “awakens” to various abilities.
The abilities he awakens to are...

• Eye Awakening: The ability to see hidden things


• Arm Awakening: Can break through a stalemate with his mighty arms


• Leg Awakening: Clears a path with explosive speed


• Complete Awakening: Unleashes all his power as an Onimusha

...these four.
Use your awakened powers wisely to gain the upper hand in battle!

"Oni’s Weapons," the deadly weapons created by the Oni

Dual blades that enable rapid, consecutive attacks.
They can also absorb HP from enemies.

A massive hammer capable of shattering even an enemy’s armor and shields.
Charging the attack before unleashing it deals even greater damage to enemies, providing a truly exhilarating experience.

PR TIMES

Spins a double-edged sword at high speed to create a tornado-like area-of-effect attack.
This enables a wide range of combat tactics, such as scattering groups of enemies, deflecting incoming ranged attacks, or enveloping the blade in fire to create a fierce heat wave.

Thrilling Action

PR TIMES

Enjoy battles against powerful foes with a variety of actions, including the series’ signature “Issen,” as well as Chain Issen and Break Issen!
