Capcom has released a brand new Onimusha: Warlords Remastered launch trailer to celebrate the worldwide release of the game.
The trailer shows off the remastered gameplay and highlights the visual and mechanical updates that were added for the remaster.
The video begins with a remastered clip from the Warlords opening cutscene before cutting to some of the new gameplay.
In this gameplay footage, viewers get to see Samanosuke Akechi in action as he slashes his way through two groups of demons. There is also a quick look at Kaede dodging a demon’s attack by leaping over the enemy and grabbing him for an easy kill.
Next, the trailer goes over the various visual updates Capcom has made for the remaster. Starting with the graphics, a cutscene plays under a split screen that compares the remastered visuals on the left and the original PS2 graphics on the right.
Viewers also get a look at the game’s brand new widescreen support. Showing gameplay of Samanosuke running through the environment in 16:9 on the left and the same clip of the game in 4:3 on the right.
The trailer then starts to show the mechanical changes made to the Warlords remaster. First, the game’s new analog support is represented by an on-screen stick graphic that matches the movements of Kaede through a burning building.
Following this, the video gives a brief look at the new weapon swapping system as Samanosuke is seen quickly changing from a bow to a sword during a fight.
