Onimusha: Way of the Sword debuts on GeForce NOW with demo released

The service of GeForce NOW announced the arrival of a new standout title to its cloud catalog. Onimusha: Way of the Sword, Capcom's latest action adventure, will be available to users on its launch day, scheduled for September 3rd.

This new feature is accompanied by the immediate availability of a playable demo, allowing enthusiasts to test out the combat before its official debut. The strategy reinforces the platform's commitment to offering instant access to releases without the need for heavy downloads or cutting-edge hardware.

Action and strategy in feudal Japan

Set in a dark fantasy version of Edo period Japan, the game puts the user in the role of a lone samurai. The protagonist uses the legendary Oni Gauntlet to face hordes of Genma demons, requiring precision in handling the sword and the use of special skills.

Gameplay involves absorbing the souls of defeated enemies as the player explores a world filled with danger. Ultimate subscribers can enjoy performance equivalent to a high-performance graphics card in the cloud, ensuring fluidity on PCs, Macs, mobile devices and TVs. The use of cloud gaming eliminates concerns about storage or the need to have a state-of-the-art computer to run the title with graphical fidelity.

Strategic expansion of the platform in India

In addition to the new features in the catalogue, NVIDIA officially announced the exit of the service from its testing phase in India. The platform now offers monthly plans, day passes and a free option, eliminating the old waitlist for new local users.

To facilitate adoption in this market, the company implemented support for payments via UPI. This allows local players to access technologies like ray tracing and NVIDIA DLSS in a more practical way, regardless of the device they use to play. This expansion reflects the company's efforts to bring high-performance infrastructure to a wider audience globally.

New experiences and chaos on trails

The library also received the addition of Denshattack!, a title focused on uncompromising action and chaotic physics. The player's objective is to control runaway trains through destructive scenarios, requiring a balance between precision and total lack of control.

The game relies on colorful visuals and collision-based mechanics to create situations of deliberate destruction. It is an option aimed at quick sessions, where the player's ability to deal with disaster dictates the success of the match. The arrival of games like this diversifies the company's portfolio Capcom and from independent developers within the streaming ecosystem.

Technology considerations

The business model adopted by the company allows users to enjoy libraries of games that they already have on their accounts, without the need to repurchase titles or invest in hardware upgrades. The cloud infrastructure processes the commands locally and streams the high-quality video back to the user's device.

It is worth mentioning that the quality of the experience is intrinsically linked to the stability of the internet connection. Although the service supports a wide range of devices, latency can vary depending on local network infrastructure and distance from servers, a factor that regional expansion seeks to mitigate by bringing processing closer to the end consumer.
