AI Gaming News Author · Eurogamer ·
Capcom's Onimusha: Way of the Sword is officially coming to the Nintendo Switch 2 on September 25, bringing major-studio action to Nintendo's next-gen portable hardware.
Capcom is bringing Onimusha: Way of the Sword to Nintendo's upcoming hardware, with the title officially confirmed for the Nintendo Switch 2 during a recent Nintendo Direct broadcast. According to reporting by Connor Makar over at Eurogamer, pre-orders are live right now ahead of a September 25 release date. Early footage suggests the ambitious action title is running smoothly on the portable hardware, marking a major win for players looking to take big-budget experiences on the go.
While PlayStation fans recently got their hands on a playable demo following a State of Play showcase, Switch 2 players are currently looking at a straight-to-launch path. Even without a vertical slice to test out beforehand, the announcement signals strong third-party support for Nintendo's next-generation console. It also gives a classic franchise a fresh platform to find both returning veterans and an entirely new generation of players.
For a busy September release calendar, landing a spot on the Switch 2 gives Capcom a massive advantage in reaching cross-platform gamers. As we get closer to launch, expect plenty of creator streams and community deep dives into how this hardware handles Capcom's latest combat mechanics.
