Does The Onimusha: Warlords Remaster Mean We’re Getting Onimusha 5?

Onimusha 5

Yesterday Capcom announced that Onimusha: Warlords was getting the remaster treatment, which was an announcement that longtime fans were thrilled to hear. While there were rumors that something was in the works earlier this year, hearing the official announcement was still fantastic and we’re getting a remaster early next year now.

However, while it’s great that longtime fans will be able to play an improved version and new fans will be able to experience it for the first time, what’s next for the series? It has been over a decade since a new installment was released, with Onimusha: Dawn of Dreams being the last game to release back in 2006. While that game was well-reviewed, it didn’t quite live up to the standards of the first three games, particularly the Samanosuke-lead ones. After that, the series basically disappeared.

If there’s one thing we know, though, it’s that nothing is gone forever in video games. Whenever a remaster for an older game is announced, it usually means that something new from the series is in the planning stages, at the very least. While there’s plenty of evidence to support this, we can point to another major Capcom property with Devil May Cry. Long before Devil May Cry 5 was announced earlier this year Capcom had been working on remasters of the original games, which was a move that also had people speculating about a new game. The very same could be the case for Onimusha.

What’s interesting to note here is that Capcom isn’t releasing the games as a remastered set, with the announcement only being for the first game. Considering that there are four games in total (as well as the Blade Warriors fighting game spin-off and a Game Boy Advance Tactics game), it will be interesting to see where they go from here. It’s possible that they’re just releasing the first game as a way to test the waters, and if the feedback and sales are strong they’ll go ahead with the others.

It’s all speculation at this point, but it would be excellent to see this series back in the mix again. The games offered great action adventure experiences that had some really interesting settings, with historic figures from Japanese history getting a supernatural twist.

Onimusha: Warlords is being remastered for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and PC, with the price set for $19.99 and the release date set for January 15th.

ReFantazio Takes a Different Approach to Romance, Setting Itself Apart from the Persona Games

Atlus’ highly anticipated RPG, Metaphor: ReFantazio, appears to incorporate familiar systems reminiscent of the developer’s acclaimed Persona series. The game features turn-based battles that heavily rely on exploiting enemy weaknesses. Additionally, players have the ability to summon warrior spirits during combat. However, the most significant aspect of this game, which will be discussed in this article, is the bonding system. Through this system, players can spend time with important characters and gain deeper insights into their personalities and stories.

In contrast to the Persona games, the bonding system ends at that point. Unfortunately, players will be unable to pursue romantic relationships with their beloved waifus, which may come as a disappointment to those who have developed strong feelings for Hulkenberg, the party’s charismatic red-haired elven knight.

According to Siliconera, the absence of romance came up during a recent question and answer session. Atlus emphasized the continued opportunity to develop meaningful relationships with your allies while also introducing additional narratives through substories. In addition, familiarizing yourself with the supporting characters will grant you access to new archetypes, which serve as the game’s character classes.

In the Persona games, romance is not obligatory; rather, it serves as a means to customize your playthrough. However, it is quite unexpected that Metaphor has chosen not to pursue such a venture, considering the significant amount of discussion it typically generates!

Were you anticipating any romantic elements in Metaphor? If you’re not satisfied with your pre-order, feel free to share your thoughts in the comments section below.

It appears that many

are eagerly anticipating the launch of the highly anticipated PS5 exclusive, Stellar Blade. Shift Up, the developer, has shared a lengthy video showcasing the “secrets” found in the physical box of the game for PS5. From what we can gather, these secrets include a reversible cover/dust jacket and a download code for cosmetic items.

We must clarify that while we do appreciate the variant cover, it may be more appealing than the game’s standard art. However, it is not something we would typically classify as a “secret.”. However, what’s interesting is that Shift Up has confirmed through the comments section that this will be the case in all regions. Additionally, the visually striking action RPG will remain uncensored worldwide.

It’s refreshing to witness a developer going the extra mile for physical collectors, and it’s evident that the developer is determined to leave a favorable mark in the console realm. Stellar Blade is set to make its highly anticipated debut this Friday, April 26th, exclusively on the PS5.
