Samurai, demons and cutting action: Capcom's Onimusha blends the sword, horror and spectacular staging. RomWize re-ranks the best entries by its re-evaluated scores, each with its current score, its versions, their rarity and their collector value.
"Onimusha Warlords is still a textbook samurai survival adventure. Striking fixed cameras, lean story and katana combat that feels wonderfully crunchy. Short, intense and an absolute must."
"Onimusha 3 swings for the fences with Jean Reno in modern Paris and Samanosuke jumping into feudal Japan. Huge set pieces, gleeful swordplay and unforgettable cutscenes. Pure pulp magic."
"Demon Siege is the same grand show as Onimusha 3, with Jean Reno gleefully along for the ride. Souped-up action, gloriously over the top, and immediately fun every single time."
"The original Onimusha is Resident Evil with a katana and a samurai soul. Tense atmosphere, clever puzzles and crisp swordplay. Short yet staggeringly intense, a true replay classic."
"Onimusha 2 raises the bar everywhere. Jubei is a magnetic lead, the new ally system adds depth and the combat feels meatier. Arguably the saga's peak, superbly paced."
