Is Genma Onimusha still worth playing in 2026?

An expanded Xbox version of Capcom's first Onimusha, Genma Onimusha transposes the action adventure to a feudal Japan overrun by demons, blending sword combat, soul absorption and Resident Evil style puzzles. The added enemies, weapons and a challenge mode enrich the original experience. The fixed camera angles and the tank handling divide today. An excellent action adventure for fans of snappy sword combat and of samurai facing the supernatural.
