Onimusha: Way of the Sword

Lavish presentation

Capcom's revival of Onimusha sends a samurai wielding the Oni Gauntlet through a demon-infested Edo-era Kyoto. Its core is weighty, precise swordplay built around timing-based counters and gory, cinematic presentation.

Skydance's Behemoth

Lavish presentation

A VR action adventure where you play the hunter Wren and take down colossal Behemoths in a cursed, fallen kingdom. It centers on weighty melee fights against giant beasts and a bleak atmosphere.

Onimusha: Warlords

Dark, serious atmosphere

As the samurai Samanosuke, you slash through demon hordes in feudal Japan to rescue a kidnapped princess. Fixed camera angles, puzzles and absorbing demon souls shape this survival-horror-style action adventure.

Dante's Inferno

Dark, serious atmosphere

A brutal hack-and-slash descent through the nine circles of Hell inspired by Dante's Divine Comedy, wielding Death's scythe and a holy cross against grotesque demons. Punishing or absolving damned souls shapes your unholy or holy upgrade path.

Hellblade II: Senua's Saga

Strong, story-driven narrative

A stunning, film-like journey through mythic Viking Iceland that renders Senua's psychosis through remarkable binaural audio. Light on gameplay depth, but heavy on atmosphere, weighty one-on-one duels and perception puzzles.
