Still Fantastic.
This game is fantastic, hands down. I played the original version of this for the PS2 when it was first released 18 years ago, and it's just as amazing as I remembered it being. The Onimusha series is one my all time favorites, and I was super excited to see them re-master and re-release this. If you've never played any of these games, I highly suggest starting here. While not super long, the game has a ton of value and will keep you entertained for a while. With challenges and extras that'll keep you engaged and coming back, this title for $20 is well worth it.Buy this, you won't be disappointed!

Onimusha: Warlords (PS4) – A Legendary Remaster Wasted by Two Fatal Flaws
On the PS4, this game is fantastic and deserves four stars. There's something going on with the PS5 implementation:The cleaned-up visuals are fantastic and true to the original, and for newcomers, this should have been the perfect way to experience a classic.Potential issue: On PS5, L3 is mapped to the map screen, and it triggers constantly in combat. Every time I tried to reposition or evade, I was yanked out of the action by an unwanted map pop-up. There’s no way to remap the controls, meaning frustration is baked into every fight. It’s such a small oversight, yet it completely cripples the experience.For those who have no other way to play Onimusha, this is still a great game—if you can tolerate the constant interruptions on your PS5. But for me? I’d rather play my PS2 copy, where I can enjoy Onimusha as it was meant to be played.

Did they even do anything to the original tho?
This presumably a remastered version but I'm not seeing any improvements... like at all. The good thing is that this was a good game to begin with. Goes without saying but there's no extra content. This is a 6 hour game, know this going in if you haven't played it before. Somewhat disappointing with this because I feel like they just slapped a "remastered" label on the original and sold it to those who played it as a kid. Still nice revisiting it as an adult, just could've done a lot more with it.

Just like the PS2 version, except quicker load times!
When I saw they had remastered this game, I had to get it. I know that you can beat the game in a few hours, but part of the fun is going back and trying to beat it completely (get all the fluorite pieces to unlock another secret mode!), so it really does have a lot of playability. I feel that a price point of $20 is GREAT for a game like this, but I guess some other people have differing opinions. As for the actual game play itself, it's awesome; it's just like the PS2 version.

Great game, alright port
The price is quite high for a port with veryyyy few upgrades of a +20yo game. The game itself is very fun, RE like.

a capcom classic!!! Great remaste!!
I first played onimusha warlords back when it came out in early 2000s and i looooved them game! This is another capcom masterpiece that shouldnt be missed! U want zombies and samurais in epic survival horror game? Then onimusha is one of the few titles out there that offers this type of gameplay...u control samanosuke, a great samurai warrior fighting against the dark forces of general nobunaga! The game plays exactly like an old school resident evil with angled cameras,pull up menu and control movement! Which is smthin that i love! The

Nostalgic Fun
Although this isn't a full remaster from the ground up as many other games have been, it still looks and plays great. The pre-rendered backgrounds do look hazy and out of place next to HD characters, but it doesn't take away from what made the game fun to begin with. My only complaint is the characters seem to have an unnatural shake in cutscenes and hopefully this is resolved with an update. I never beat this game as a kid, and I've had the game on PS2 for years. Finally I'm able to play this in HD on the big screen and grab trophies along the way, and I'm a little over half way through the game. Don't overlook this classic!

Amazon doesn't seem to be selling the NTSC version anymore
I purchased this game, returned it, and received a second copy. Both times, I received the same Japanese version, as seen in the included photo. I don't know if I got unlucky twice in a row or what, but Amazon obviously has some mix up going on in their warehouse or something. Keep in mind that the Japanese version will play on international consoles and I believe there are options to change the settings to English, but if you want the NTSC version that's being advertised on the product page here, then keep in mind that you might not get what you want.
