Set in Japan during the Battle of Okehazama (1560 AD), warlord Nobunaga Oda defeats Yoshimoto Imagawa but is killed during the battle. An updated HD remaster was recently released for PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC. An updated port titled Genma Onimusha was released for the Xbox approximately a year later that introduced new features such as improved graphics and sound, new areas, and new gameplay elements, among other things. Developed and published by Capcom, it was originally conceived as a Resident Evil spinoff set in feudal Japan but had become an entirely new IP by the time it reached development. Onimusha: Warlords was released on the PS2 in early 2001 and was a critical and commercial success. Now, with the recent remaster of Onimusha: Warlords, the time is right to give my thoughts on this classic. I was absolutely blown away by how much I enjoyed it.
Last Spring, while looking for a shorter game to play, I pulled the original title in the series off my shelf and decided to revisit it. I played the first three back when they were originally released on the PlayStation 2, but I don't recall having any particular fondness for them and have mostly forgotten about them over the years. The Onimusha series has strangely slipped under my radar throughout the years.
