A new game in the Onimusha franchise has been announced. The latest title in the saga, the remaster of Onimusha: Warlords, was released in October 2018. The new title is called Onimusha: Way of the Sword. The game seems to have soulslikes mechanics.
The announcement took the gaming community by surprise, after all, it was believed that the franchise would never return. However, relatively recent indications pointed to the contrary.
A few years ago, Capcom was the victim of a hacker attack that ended up leaking several of its projects. Among them, a new Onimusha had been mentioned. In addition, the publisher licensed the franchise for Netflix to make an anime.
Few details about the game have been released so far. All we know is that it is being made on the RE Engine and will be released on consoles and PC in 2026.

Great can we get other IP back now that this and Okami 2 are happening. Mega Man for instance, Legends 3, Star Force, Battle Network, Power Stone, Gotcha Force, Viewtiful Joe, Under The Skin, Auto Modellista, Killer7,
Where’s the long rumored Mega Man game? Also are the remaking Power Stone or making a new one?
Same for Crimson Tears, Sengoku Basara, Breath Of Fire, Maximo, and a remake of Haunting Grounds
Kamiya is back with Capcom we could finally get a new Viewtiful Joe the original director of Dino Crisis 2 still works at Capcom they could easily remake the games. At this point I’m curious if Capcom works with Inafune again to bring back Mega Man and maybe assist on Onimusha. Heard rumors Platinum is working with them as is Mikami on a new title.
They brought Kamiya back for Okami now bring back Inafune for Mega Man Legends 3! Also Suda for Killer7 2.
