Source ledger
Where these facts come from
This is an independent fan reference, so the source ledger is part of the page rather than a decorative list of links. Each source has a defined job: CAPCOM announcements establish the published launch facts, the official game site identifies the game, and the official Steam listing records storefront details visible when it was checked. When a detail is not supported by one of those sources, this site leaves it out instead of completing the picture with rumor, old series information, or an assumption.
Release date and launch-platform details come from CAPCOM’s July 2, 2026 announcement, which moved the worldwide date to September 4, 2026 and names PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PC. The official game site is linked as the primary title destination. CAPCOM’s earlier announcements support the concise background used here: this is an all-new Onimusha entry, Miyamoto Musashi is its protagonist, and the published genre wording is Swordplay Action.
The Steam listing was checked on August 29, 2026 for current Steam-specific information, including the release date shown there and the names of its digital editions. That evidence does not turn Steam’s regional storefront data into a universal price, physical-edition, or cross-store claim. Store content can change and can vary by region, so the relevant official storefront remains the final source when you are deciding whether to download, pre-purchase, or buy.
Pre-release information can change. This page therefore preserves the published release date in the main guide, records the date each storefront detail was checked, and points readers back to the original source before a purchase or platform decision. That narrow approach is deliberate: it makes the site more useful as a launch reference without claiming details that have not been verified.
