The latest Capcom Spotlight and the Monster Hunter Wilds Showcase have brought us a wealth of new information on several exciting Capcom titles. From a new story trailer and Open Beta 2 details for Monster Hunter Wilds to updates on Onimusha: Way of the Sword, a remaster of Onimusha 2: Samurai's Destiny, a release date for Capcom Fighting Collection 2, and more, there's plenty to look forward to.
The development team is concentrating on three main areas: crafting compelling characters, introducing a new protagonist, and creating engaging enemies. They aim to meticulously recreate the setting of Kyoto, filled with authentic historical locations. The goal is to deliver the "ultimate sword fighting action" experience, complete with the intense satisfaction of slicing through foes.
Although details about the new protagonist are sparse, it's confirmed that Onimusha: Way of the Sword will be set during the Edo Period. Players will battle against evil creatures called Genma, with the protagonist wielding an Oni Gauntlet. This powerful tool will be used to vanquish enemies and feed on their souls.
The game aims to be challenging but not "impossibly difficult," ensuring that action fans of all skill levels can enjoy it to the fullest.
Additional features include a Gypceros Hunt, a training area, and online options like Private Lobbies and Online Single Player mode. Private Lobbies are ideal for playing with friends without appearing in public searches, while Online Single Player allows players to play solo but use an S.O.S. Flare to switch to multiplayer when needed.
Data from the first Open Beta can be transferred to this new test, and returning features include the Character Creator, Story Trial, and the Doshaguma hunt.
Monster Hunter Wilds is set to release on February 28, with the second Open Beta featuring Cross-Play available during the following times:
The Monster Hunter Wilds Showcase showcased a new story trailer set in the frozen locale of the Iceshard Cliffs, introducing new enemies such as the quirky Wudwud known as Rove, the Hirabami - Leviathan, Nerscylla - Temnoceran, and the fierce Gore Magala. More details were also shared about the flagship monster, Arkveld.
