Having said that, playing it in 2019, the fixed camera does feel a bit clunky, especially as you run from one angle into another and the direction of the analogue stick means you’re character goes from running forward to turning back around and heading back to in the direction you came. The fixed camera, a staple of Capcom games like Resident Evil, remains, giving the game that feel which made these titles so successful 18 years ago. There follows the usual cheesy dialogue, battles with undead monsters, brain teasing puzzles and maybe just a little bit of magic!įeaturing a HD makeover, new widescreen visuals, re-recorded character voice overs and tighter controls, this new release of Onimusha retains pretty much everything else from the original. The player is Samanosuke, a warrior who goes to the aid of his cousin, Princess Yuki, as a warlord once presumed dead makes a move for power. Taking place in feudal Japan, Onimusha plays out pretty much like Resident Evil with Samurai. The only question though, is it as good now as it was then?
The original was a classic its era and when the remaster was announced, there was universal excitement from gamers who grew up in that generation. It’s 2019 and the game has now been re-released in a remaster for Switch, XBox One, PS4 and PC. 18 years ago, Capcom brought Samurai based action horror game, Onimusha, to PS2 and XBox.
