People who were born when I played Onimusha Warlords for the first time are now old enough to drive. I'm only going to say this once, just to experience what typing these words feels like:

15, 2019 for PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC.A slightly dated reintroduction to one of Capcom's hack-and-slash greats. The western release is scheduled for Jan. 20, but Japanese gamers can play it only on PS4 and Nintendo Switch. Onimusha: Warlords has been released in Japan today, Dec. a trailer and gameplay released a few days ago, and the original announcement trailer which Capcom published in August. If you want to see more, you can also check out some Nintendo Switch gameplay from yesterday, recent screenshots showing the Oni Spirits minigame and costumes, more showing the Dark Realm and fluorite. Yet, hopefully a successful launch might convince Capcom to invest more resources into the previously-dormant franchise.

I’ll let you judge whether the update is worth the asking price, but it’s safe to say that this isn’t exactly the extensive remake that many would have liked. The only difference is that the first features the in-game music, while the second comes with the new image song “Cleave – Ittoryoudan” (which translates into “Cleave – Cut in Two”) by popular Japanese rock band ROOKiEZ is PUNK’D.

To be more specific, the two trailers are identical in their imagery. Today’s trailers released by Capcom seek to answer just that question by placing the new visuals that received a fresh (albeit pretty thin) coat of paint and the old ones from the PlayStation 2 era. The Onimusha: Warlords HD remaster promises higher resolution to make the game look a little better on today’s platforms, but just how much of an improvement is that?
