In a recent post on social media, Onimusha: Way of the Sword director Satoru Nihei teased that the next major reveal tied to the game should result in its launch date being revealed. While Nihei didn’t state this outright, he provided a new update on the game’s development and said that it’s now nearing completion. In light of this, he encouraged fans to prepare for the game’s next announcement, which will almost certainly be tied to its release.
“Thank you all so much for all the positive comments you’ve shared for last week’s Capcom Spotlight,” Nihei said. “We’re glad to see so many of you say you can’t wait to know when the game will be released! The whole team is now working on the final stages of development. Please look forward to our next announcement!”
When Will Onimusha: Way of the Sword Release?
Based on Capcom’s lineup of games in 2026, it’s likely that Onimusha: Way of the Sword won’t release until this summer at the absolute earliest. The next major release from Capcom is slated to be Pragmata, which arrives in April. Beyond this, though, nothing else is lined up to release in 2026 from Capcom other than Way of the Sword, which means that there is plenty of space for it to drop without overlapping with another game from the company.
