A brief trailer gave us a taste of Way of the Sword‘s bloody combat that we can expect when it releases on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, and PC in 2026. With no hints or lead-up, the trailer for Onimusha: Way of the Sword opens with a slow reveal of Kyoto during the early Edo *******. It is only when we see the telltale floating souls absorbed into the iconic Oni Gauntlet that it becomes clear that this is part of that long-dormant series. The trailer features no text or dialogue until the very end, but plenty of action. The majority of the footage appears to be gameplay of various finishing moves, as well as some quick clashes against massive mythological foes called Genma that are transformed by a force called Malice.

We don’t know if Onimusha: Way of the Sword will be a sequel, prequel, or take place somewhere between entries in the timeline, but it does appear to retain the unique blend of Japanese folklore and stylish action.
