Capcom Publishes Switch 2 Specs for Onimusha: Way of the Sword

The company set specific resolution and frame‑rate targets for the Switch 2 to balance performance and visual fidelity ahead of the game’s multi‑platform launch.

Overview

  • Capcom confirmed the Switch 2 build will target 1920x1080 in TV mode and 1600x900 in handheld, using upscaling and a 30 frames‑per‑second default.
  • The Switch 2 release will include an optional variable frame‑rate setting that can run between 30 and 40 FPS, while other platforms are listed to support up to 60 FPS and 3840x2160 (4K).
  • Nintendo eShop pre‑orders for the Switch 2 edition are live and list a Lion Dog charm and a Sealed Curse sword appearance as bonuses plus an estimated 34.1GB download size.
  • Capcom’s free demo attracted over one million downloads and drew feedback that it felt easy; producer Akihito Kadowaki said the demo was intentionally overpowered and that the final game will present tougher encounters.
  • The game is a mainline Onimusha entry set in Edo‑period Kyoto that follows Miyamoto Musashi wielding the Oni Gauntlet, with Capcom using late actor Toshiro Mifune as the face model, and it is scheduled to launch across platforms on September 25, 2026.
