If you’re a video game publisher with a game arriving in the second half of 2026, you’re tossing it into a veritable bloodbath. Nearly every publisher (other than perhaps Nintendo) has been doing everything in its power to keep out of the way of GTA 6<\/em>. One of the many<\/em> games due to be released in the comically over-crowded September-October window (GTA 6<\/em> arrives November 19) is Onimusha: Way of the Sword<\/em>, which was supposed to launch on September 25. We’re now getting it a bit earlier, with Capcom announcing a new release date of September 4.<\/p>\n The new release date is for all versions of the game, so PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X|S, as well as the Switch 2. It was only a month ago that Capcom announced the original release date for the first new mainline entry in its historical fantasy action series since 2006’s Onimusha: Dawn of Dreams<\/em>. 2002’s Onimusha 2: Samurai’s Destiny<\/em> was remastered for modern platforms last year.<\/p>\n The new release date for Onimusha: Way of the Sword<\/em> means the game should be afforded a bit more breathing space. The previous September 25 date would have seen it arrive in the same week as highly anticipated games like\u00a0Control Resonant<\/em> and Silent Hill: Townfall<\/em>, which both come out on September 24. After the new Onimusha lands, the next major release is currently Marvel’s Wolverine<\/em> on September 15.<\/p>\n And if September 4 is still too long to wait for Capcom’s next big game, there’s a demo for Onimusha: Way of the Sword<\/em> out right now, but bear in mind that progress does not carry over to the full game.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n The game will now arrive three weeks earlier on September 4.
