The most captivating trailer from the recent State of Play showcase undoubtedly belonged to the latest Onimusha game. Onimusha: Way of the Sword unveiled its protagonist, Miyamoto Musashi, whose striking resemblance to legendary Japanese actor Toshiro Mifune was achieved through meticulous character modeling by Capcom. The trailer depicts Musashi's valiant—and occasionally comical—battles against demons that have invaded Kyoto from the infernal depths.
The narrative reveals Musashi's transformation into the wielder of the Oni Gauntlet, a power granted through unwavering faith. His mission: to combat the monstrous beings plaguing the mortal realm and absorb their souls to replenish his health and unlock extraordinary abilities.
A remastered trailer for Onimusha 2 was also presented, offering a stark visual comparison that underscores the remarkable advancements in gaming graphics over the years.
