How am I just fukking finding out about this now? Is the protag based on a real life actor like the other onimushas? All I need is square to drop a new bouncer and it will be like I'm teleported back to high school

It appears to be a sequel (or reboot) as it’s taking place during the Edo period.

This series was crack on the PS2. Might get into this again.

I am kinda meh on this right now. Nioh 2 already satisfied my samurai itch.

 

[TheNatureBoy]

I do like the environmental interaction they showed in the latest footage.

 

[Gizmo_Duck]

I think the actual combat looks cool with the environmental stuff, thats a cool idea. Its gonna be like Jackie chain samurai action.

i do think the graphics are really unimpressive looking though. Not even just the fidelity but the art style is kinda ugly. Reminds me of the ps2 era Onimusha games in terms of visual clarity. Capcom is such a mixed bag with this stuff
