Onimusha: Warlords – Cane and Rinse No.721

“Fight and die with honor!”

As Capcom gears up to soft reboot dormant franchise Onimusha, we look back a quarter of a century to its origins, 2001’s Onimusha: Warlords. Leon, Chris Worthington, James and Michiel suck Genma souls like it’s Luigi’s haunted hotel in this tricky, Spenceresque Sengoku Mansion. We also talk about the game’s interface, systems, challenge and – with contributions from the listeners – some of the changes made to both the Xbox version and the more recent remaster.

Music featured in this issue:

1. Rising Sun by Takashi Niigaki, Rei Kondoh
2. Samanosuke Theme by Takashi Niigaki, Rei Kondoh
