Onimusha: Way of the Sword Platforms

PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series

Digital Foundry sat with the ~30-minute console demo in June 2026 and recorded two graphics modes. Quality targets a fixed 4K at 30 FPS. Performance targets 60 FPS at a dynamic 1440p-to-4K window. PS5 Pro, base PS5 and Series X all behaved similarly in that test; Series S held 1080p in Quality and a dynamic 1080p (with possible drops) in Performance. CAPCOM did not enable the full RE Engine ray-tracing suite in the build DF saw — lighting still looks expensive, but do not expect path-traced Kyoto out of the box.

Xbox Play Anywhere is confirmed: a Microsoft Store copy runs on Series consoles and Xbox PC. A public, name-by-name trophy sheet is not something this wiki will invent — see trophies for what is actually sourced. DualSense work is more than a rumble preset: director Satoru Nihei told PlayStation.Blog that haptics are built from audio waveforms for cutscenes, giant Genma, soul absorb and weapon hits; drawing the Oni Bow stiffens the adaptive trigger; sealing a “Rift” portal asks for a full squeeze; 3D audio used impulse responses recorded in real Kyoto temples, with DualSense speaker cues for absorb and the Oni Lady. Xbox wireless still has full support. Button homes stay on the control schemes page.

Nintendo Switch 2

Nintendo announced the Switch 2 version in a June 2026 Direct, after the PS5 / Xbox / PC date was already public. Official social copy the same day confirmed Joy-Con 2 motion controls as an optional, more intuitive swing. Nintendo of Australia lists a 31.9 GB file, single-player only, TV / tabletop / handheld, and Save Data Cloud. Nintendo Life’s full review is 9/10 and treats the Switch 2 SKU as a successful port, including handheld — stronger than the summer preview. Exact per-mode resolution still has no Digital Foundry-style table.

Physical Switch 2 copies in the Americas include a Game Key Card Steelbook. That is a download code in a box, not a 32 GB card with the full game on it. Leave docked storage free before September 4. The Switch 2 demo arrived after the other platforms; if you only own that hardware, you still have time to practise Issen before launch week.

Windows PC

Steam AppID 2638890, plus Epic Games Store and Microsoft Store. Minimum is Windows 11, Core i5-8400 or Ryzen 3 3100, 16 GB RAM, GTX 1660 (6 GB) or RX 5500 XT (8 GB), DirectX 12, 50 GB on an SSD, targeting 1080p30 Low with upscaling. Recommended steps up to i5-10400 / Ryzen 5 3600 and RTX 2060 Super / RX 6600 for 1080p60 Medium. CAPCOM also published High and Ultra presets that assume 1440p and 4K respectively. The PC requirements tool maps those four tiers to common cards.

Super Resolution is NVIDIA DLSS 4.5 and AMD FSR 3.1. HDR is flagged on Steam. Denuvo Anti-tamper ships with a five-different-PCs-per-day activation cap — relevant if you bounce between a desktop and a laptop. Keyboard and mouse are supported; the demo already attracted players who cleared Kiyomizu-dera without a pad. For button maps see Controls.

What you will not find

No last-generation consoles. No split-screen. No online versus. The pitch is a single-player, mostly linear, ~20-hour RE Engine action game, closer to a modern Onimusha than to an open-world samurai RPG. If that matches what you want, pick the screen you already sit in front of and spend remaining days on the demo walkthrough rather than platform anxiety.

Cloud saves: Steam Cloud, Xbox Play Anywhere, Switch 2 Save Data Cloud, and PS5 cloud if you have the subscription. Demo saves do not become campaign saves; only the Kubi Akari flag carries. Plan your edition after you know which storefront already has your Capcom library.
