The most impressive trailer from the recent State of Play showcase undoubtedly belonged to the new Onimusha title. Onimusha: Way of the Sword unveiled its protagonist, Miyamoto Musashi, whose striking resemblance to legendary Japanese actor Toshiro Mifune was achieved through meticulous character modeling by Capcom.
The trailer depicts Musashi engaging in intense combat against demons that have invaded Kyoto, punctuated by moments of humorous evasion. The narrative reveals Musashi's transformation into the wielder of the Oni Gauntlet, empowered by his unwavering faith. He confronts the demonic hordes, absorbing their souls to replenish his health and unlock potent abilities.
Furthermore, a remastered trailer for Onimusha 2 was also showcased. A comparison of the two trailers vividly illustrates the remarkable advancements in video game graphics over the years.
