You might still be fighting demons or Nevrons, but there’s more new Xbox games launching this week, including a remaster of Capcom’s Onimusha 2: Samurai’s Destiny.
This classic action game first launched back in 2002 on the PlayStation 2, and it’s finally being brought to modern platforms. This remaster includes HD graphics and revamped controls, as well as extras like a gallery mode where players can view sketches of the game’s art.
It’s good timing to hop into Onimusha, as Capcom is finally working on a new entry in the series. Titled Onimusha: Way of the Sword, it’s currently slated to launch at some point in 2026.
If you missed them before, be sure to check out all the Xbox games that launched last week, including DOOM: The Dark Ages. Now, here’s everything coming to the Xbox store next week:
