Capcom has released an official PC benchmark tool for Onimusha: Way of the Sword. This will let you test how well the game will run on your PC before you buy it. I highly recommend giving it a try, especially if you’ve been looking forward to the game.
Onimusha: Way of the Sword is a third-person action adventure game, in which players will battle through dangerous and bloody battlefields using fast and powerful sword moves. They will also explore Edo-era Kyoto, a famous old city in Japan, now changed and corrupted by evil clouds known as Malice.
Players will fight scary monsters from the underworld called Genma. These creatures are powerful and creepy, and they come from a dark and evil place. The story is full of magic, mystery, and danger, with a dark fantasy style. As you explore the world, you’ll uncover secrets and face tough battles while trying to stop the Genma and save the land.
In this new Onimusha game, you will follow the story of a brave samurai who has a special weapon, the Oni Gauntlet. This magical gauntlet gives the samurai powerful abilities to fight and defeat the Genma. With the Oni Gauntlet, the samurai can use amazing skills to protect the land and stop the dark forces. You will go on an exciting adventure full of action, danger, and mystery as you help the samurai fight to save the world.
I’ve tried the benchmark, and I can tell you that it appears to be representative of the in-game performance. The benchmark tool has three parts. The first two are cut-scenes, and the third is a gameplay sequence in which Musashi fights numerous enemies.
For what it’s worth, I’ll be using this benchmark tool for our upcoming PC Performance Analysis.
You can go ahead and download the benchmark tool from this link. Below, you can also find a video for it. In this video, I’ve benchmarked the NVIDIA RTX 5090 at Native 4K on Max Settings with Ray Tracing.
Capcom will release Onimusha: Way of the Sword on September 4. You can also find its PC requirements here.
