gamescom Opening Night Live 2025: Onimusha: Way of the Sword

Onimusha is a franchise that many may remember from the PlayStation 2 era of gaming, featuring demon-slaying swordplay and historic setpieces. Now, after a few remasters and a long wait, the series is returning with Onimsuha: Way of the Sword!

Wield the Oni Gauntlet once again as you re-enter Edo-era Kyoto. The land is rife with Malice and the corruption that always follows, and the Genma are as fierce as ever, making the life of our samurai somewhat unpleasant. The battles are brutal, the foes are deadly, and everything is layered in a smog of intrigue. Can you find a reason to fight, or will your fate be to die?

Onimsuha: Way of the Sword is set to release in 2026.
