This improvement in detail is also visible on the various enemies which now showcase better polygonal detail than their original counterparts.

Character models have seen the biggest improvements with character armor and facial textures now possessing clearly defined details. We tested the game on the PS4 Pro, Xbox One X and PC versions and the game largely seems to showcase minor improvements along with a solid boost to resolution. What the future holds for the franchise remains to be seen but what kind of improvements does this remaster bring over the original PlayStation 2 version? Let’s get into it. The remastered version of the game is now available on the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PC and Nintendo Switch, and it seems like the developers are testing the waters for a potential sequel and more remasters if this performs well for them. So, after several years of absence, the series is finally back, albeit in the form a remaster.

This version featured better graphics, new areas, 5.1 Dolby Digital audio and a host of other changes and new inclusions. This was followed Genma Onimusha, a port of the game for the original Xbox. The original Onimusha turned out to be a commercial and critical success. The game turned out to be a fantastic hack and slash experience with addictive combat and a story that was surprisingly interesting (well, besides the cringe worthy voice acting). The IP was planned as a trilogy and players take on the role of Samanosuke Akechi in Onimusha Warlords with the game set in the Sengoku period. According to reports, the PlayStation One version was 50% complete before it was completely scrapped. Originally planned for release on the PlayStation One, the developers thought it would be best if they developed the title for the more powerful PlayStation 2. Onimusha Warlords was originally released almost 18 years ago on the PlayStation 2.
