From Capcom Unity:
"Fans of Onimusha have yet another reason to rejoice for the holidays. Just in time for some last minute shopping, we've bundled the first three Onimusha games for PS2 together in one package! At $30, it just might be the best gaming value out there."
The gaming industry has enjoyed a slew of samurai video games that do justice to the ancient samurai period. Here's a list covering them.
This article is a complete failure. Samurai Shodown is the most famous 'samuai video game series of all time. Samurai Shodown should have been at the beginning of article
I know right. How about Lords of the Rising Sun by Cinemaware on the Amiga.
Maybe by the author is too young to remember those masterpieces, or I'm too old and have experienced them!
The fondest feudal japan game experiences i had were Samurai Shodown and Onimusha, especially Onimusha 1 and 2, they were the best of the best.
Cultured Vultures: "Long considered to be the coolest warriors in history, society has a fascination with samurai culture and folklore that has remained unabated for generations, and that’s great. Samurais are rad, end of story."
Loung counsiderd to be the cooulest warriours in histoury. Why are Brit’s always adding u’s into everything lol?
American English is the only English that actually takes it out. UK, Canada and Australia all use it. You can thank Noah Webster for that. It was his attempt to "modernize" English.
Hopefully, Trek to Yomi gets added to the list.

Cultured Vultures: Capcom's epic samurai series Onimusha has been on hiatus for the better part of 15 years. We're asking if it'll ever come back.
Nope, and Capcom tested the waters with Onimusha HD and nobody bought it. So, yea, we effectively killed the Onimusha franchise by not buying the game.
not true because i remember in that leaked capcom document of all their future projects "onimusha new work" was one of the titles listed.
The HD remake had a music problem due to the controversy with the original composer and replacing his music with meh music. Maybe that affected sales.
But an Onimusha game of the quality of recent capcom games (RE2,DMC5) would definitely be welcomed by everyone and the sales of Ghost of tsushima will hopefully push Capcom to give the franchise another try.
It wasn't a remake though, it was a remaster, and they could have done a better job on it, but it was good playing through it for old times sake.
Now, if they made a full remake, that would be awesome.
they just put that game out there out of the blue
wish they did it for the other games
We didn’t kill it by not picking up an old ass game with hardly any quality of life updates. That game was absolutely amazing for its time, but it’s capcom’s own fault for such a lame remaster. You want interest from old fans or new fans, you gotta come with something that doesn’t look and feel 3 generations old.
LOL....the reason we will not see another Onimusha game is not because they put out a dopey HD version of an antiquated game on current gen. The reason we will not see it is the same reason we have not seen a new Dino Crisis, Okami, Strider, Viewtiful Joe, Bionic Commando, etc. Its the same reason everytime.
Oh yea? Tell that to the Darkstalker fans then.
Same thing happened to Zone of the Enders 3.
Pass.
Ghost of Tsushima filled that void for me, and then some. I don't see Capcom reaching this level of quality for a single-player game.
Ghost of Tsushima nor Nioh is nothing like the Onimusha franchise. Onimusha is unique compared to GOT.
lmaoooo what? ghost of tsushima doesn't have anything in common with onimusha out of the character being a samurai lmaooooo
Nioh gameplay - world class (10/10)
Nioh story telling - not so much (4/10)
Nioh story is garbage tbh. plus i don't care for the characthers of that series unlike onimusha which had much better writing and characters.
Awesome but Dawn of Dreams was friggin' awesome too so where is it?
