Capcom's highly anticipated Onimusha: Way of the Sword has received a surprise release date change, now launching on September 4th, a full three weeks earlier than initially planned. This shift in schedule positions the game to avoid the crowded late-September market, potentially giving it a stronger foothold in the gaming community.

Set in Edo Japan, Onimusha: Way of the Sword promises an action-packed adventure, following the journey of a magic gauntlet-wielding samurai as he battles against demonic forces. This revival of the Onimusha series, which originally debuted in 2001, is expected to bring a fresh wave of excitement to fans of the genre.
