May 21, 2025Capcom delivered another successful remaster. Although Onimusha 2: Samurai's Destiny is the least beloved of the original trilogy, it remains a major classic of the sixth console generation and one of the most ambitious titles of its time. With quality-of-life improvements and a beautiful adaptation of its pre-rendered backgrounds to HD, this is the definitive version of Jubei Yagyu's revenge.

May 20, 2025Regretfully, the remastering of Onimusha 2 is just an increase to the resolution and nothing more. There are no new textures, no improved lighting effects, and no changes to character animations. If anyone was going to criticise a remaster for being a cheap cash grab, this is a fine example.
