The Onimusha Strats Database
- Six categories: Characters, Weapons, Bosses, Skills, Items, Locations
- Pre-release entries are live now, built from official previews and the demo
- Every entry is tagged with a verification status so you know its source
- The full verified database drops on launch day — September 4, 2026
The Entity Database is the structured knowledge base for Onimusha: Way of the Sword. Instead of scrolling through guides to find a single stat, you can look up any character, weapon, boss, skill, item, or location directly. Each entry follows the same template — a quick-attributes table, a description, and the relevant mechanics — so you always know where to look.
Because the game does not launch until September 4, 2026, most entries are marked Pre-Release: built from official Capcom previews, interviews, and the playable demo. A handful of entries (the protagonist, the starting weapon, a known boss, the shrine system) are already drafted so the structure is live. After launch, every entry will be re-verified against the full game and tagged Officially Confirmed or Demo Verified.

Use the search bar below to look up an entity by name (search is a placeholder for now and will be wired to the full database at launch). Tap a category filter to jump straight to that section.

Every katana and armament — base damage, element, moveset, obtain method, and upgrade path. The blade is your only melee tool, so know it deeply.
1 pre-release entry Browse weapons →Bosses
Complete boss breakdowns — attack patterns, parry windows, Issen opportunities, weaknesses, and rewards. Master the fights that gate your progress.

The full skill tree — stance upgrades, parry enhancements, soul abilities, and Oni Gauntlet powers. Build paths and optimal unlock order.
Coming at launch Available September 4 →Items
Consumables, key items, collectibles, and upgrade materials — what they do, where to find them, and which are missable.
Coming at launch Available September 4 →Locations
Shrines, regions, and arenas — fast travel points, NPCs, save points, respec and upgrade stations, and environmental hazards to exploit.
1 pre-release entry Browse locations →Every database entry carries a verification badge — Officially Confirmed, Demo Verified, Pre-Release, or Community — so you always know the source and reliability of the data. Pre-release entries may change at launch; check the badge before you plan a build around a number.
How the Database Is Built
The database is structured around six entity types, and each one uses the same page template so navigation is predictable:
| Entity Type | What You'll Find | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Characters | Role, weapon, affiliation, element, background, abilities, combat style | Pre-Release → Confirmed |
| Weapons | Type, element, base damage, obtain method, moveset, upgrade costs | Pre-Release → Confirmed |
| Bosses | Type, chapter, weakness, attacks, parry windows, Issen opportunities, rewards | Pre-Release → Confirmed |
| Skills | Skill tree nodes, prerequisites, effects, optimal build paths | Coming at launch |
| Items | Consumables, key items, materials, locations, missable flags | Coming at launch |
| Locations | Type, region, fast travel, NPCs, functions (save, respec, upgrade) | Pre-Release → Confirmed |
After launch, the database will be the backbone of every guide on the site — walkthroughs will link to boss entries, build guides will link to weapon and skill entries, and the collectibles checklist will link to item and location entries. Bookmark this page; it will grow fast once the game is in hand.
Numbers, movesets, and encounter details in pre-release entries are drawn from official previews and the demo build. Capcom can rebalance before launch. Treat any specific figure as provisional until an entry is re-verified and stamped Officially Confirmed.
