Onimusha: Warlords Remastered
It’s been nearly two decades since we’ve seen Onimusha: Warlords, and Capcom’s gone ahead and given it the remaster treatment. Apart from a few touch-ups here and there, series fans will be pleased to hear that it’s pretty much the same game.
Onimusha: Warlords Remastered still revolves around famed samurai Samanosuke Akechi who returns home at the request of his cousin, Princess Yuki. Upon arriving, he’s greeted with a grizzly sight of demons infesting the palace and running amok. He’s then given a gauntlet and one major task: kick some major demon ass.
The game comes with some tight combat and a few, albeit mind-boggling puzzles. Akechi can also switch between different weapons that come with their own combos and deal more damage depending on enemy weakness.
While Onimusha: Warlords Remastered gets a lot of things right, there are still some dated mechanics that haunt the game, such as awkward save points and unskippable cutscenes. For all it’s worth, however, the Steam game still manages to hold up pretty well. Read up on our full review to learn more.
