Onimusha: Way of the Sword Story Plot
While specific plot details for Onimusha: Way of the Sword remain under wraps, a recent press release has shed some light on the game's setting and premise. Set in Kyoto during the Early Edo period—a time of relative peace in Japan's history—the ancient city has fallen under a dark curse brought forth by a plague by an incursion of demonic Gemma.
Amidst the chaos, only a lone swordsman, revealed recently to be the legendary sword saint, Miyamoto Musashi, stands between the city and complete devestation. With his fabled double-blades and a mysterious new appendage, the Oni Gauntlet, at his disposal, it's only a matter of setting him loose on the enemy to reclaim peace once more.
