Onimusha: Way of the Sword has been officially moved up to September 4, 2026

This news had already been circulating among some retailers, but Capcom has finally confirmed it. Onimusha: Way of the Sword will indeed be released earlier than planned.

Thus, the action-adventure game will no longer launch on September 25, but rather on September 4, 2026, on PS5, XBOX Series X|S, Switch 2, and PC. Note that following this change, digital pre-orders for the Switch 2 version will be automatically canceled, so you’ll need to make a new purchase through the eShop.

This won't be the case of physical pre-orders.
