Capcom has just announced some exciting news for fans of the Onimusha series: they’re giving the beloved PlayStation 2 game, Onimusha 2: Samurai’s Destiny, a fresh makeover for the Nintendo Switch.
Originally following the successful Onimusha: Warlords, this sequel quickly captured players’ hearts, moving an impressive 2.1 million copies globally and earning the title of the best-selling game in the series.
The game introduces us to Jubei Yagyu, a new hero on a mission of vengeance. Jubei’s in-game persona is inspired by the late Yusaku Matsuda, a renowned Japanese actor who made waves during the 1980s with his memorable performances.
While this remastered edition keeps the classic setting and core gameplay elements intact, players can look forward to an array of new features and tweaks designed to enhance their gaming experience on modern platforms.
Gamers can expect to find Onimusha 2: Samurai’s Destiny on the Nintendo eShop for Switch by 2025. As anticipation builds, fans around the globe await the chance to dive back into this epic adventure.
