Capcom has reconsidered and postponed the release of Onimusha: Way of the Sword. But not to 2027, rather to early September.

Capcom has moved the release of Onimusha: Way of the Sword from September 25 to September 4, 2026 — the title will arrive on Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam.

Retailers had been whispering about an early-September slip for a while; Capcom stayed quiet until now. The company says the shift is meant to dodge the crowded late‑September window (i.e., to avoid a clash with other big launches). Fans might breathe a sigh of relief — or grumble if they’d already arranged time off for the original date. Whether this shuffle helps the game cut through the noise, well, that’s something we’ll see once reviews and sales land.
