If we had to choose the most striking and memorable trailer from the recent State of Play,  the number one would go to the new Onimusha installment. Onimusha: Way of the Sword introduced its protagonist—Miyamoto Musashi.

For his character model, Capcom used the likeness of legendary Japanese actor Toshiro Mifune. In the trailer, Musashi fiercely cuts down demons that have emerged from the depths of hell into Kyoto—though at times, he humorously tries to escape from them.

According to the story, the protagonist, through his faith, becomes the wielder of the Oni Gauntlet. Now, he must battle the monsters that inhabit the world of the living and absorb their souls. By doing so, he can restore his health and unleash special abilities.

Also, we saw a new trailer for the Onimusha 2 remaster. The contrast between these two trailers highlights just how far graphics have improved the years.
