Onimusha 2 introduces a new friendship mechanic to the series which allows players to give gifts to several secondary playable characters. Defeating enemies yields red souls, which can be used to power-up your weapons, in addition to souls that restore health, magic power, and oni power.
If a player obtains enough purple souls, they can temporarily transform into an Oni and gain improved combat abilities. Movement is controlled with the directional pad, and dodges and backsteps can be performed during combat by pressing in a direction away from the enemy the player is targeting. Gameplayīasic combat in Onimusha 2 involves physical and magical attacks which are each mapped to one button, issens counter moves performed by attacking an opponent immediately before they strike the player, and targeting, which powers up the next strike if held long enough. Along the way, he must earn the respect of confidants to help him battle Nobunaga's demonic army, overcome an onslaught of traps and defeat the new King of Demons. With vengeance in his heart, Jubei embarks upon a quest to gather the five sacred Oni Orbs which will reveal his ultimate destiny. A warrior named Jubei Yagyu returns home to his remote and once vibrant village only to find it in ruins, destroyed by Nobunaga's minions. It is now ten years after Fortinbras' defeat. As the demons' new king, he has vowed to achieve his original goal of forcing all Japan under his oppressive rule. In the wake of Fortinbras' demise and Samanosuke's sudden disappearance, Nobunaga has ascended the demon throne. Yet, like Nobunaga himself, the nightmare that plagued the war-torn country would not die.
After many perilous battles, he finally slew the monstrous Fortinbras, King of Demons and primary orchestrator of Nobunaga's resurrection. News of these savage attacks quickly spread, and a young samurai named Samanosuke Akechi came to the fore. With Nobunaga as their leader, the demons began stalking the earth and killing humans. One year after his death, Nobunaga was magically resurrected by a dark council of powerful demons. The evil he had wrought while on earth attracted the notice of the demonic legions residing deep within the netherworld. However, his death did not mark the end of Nobunaga's ambitions. At the moment of victory, Nobunaga was felled by a random arrow shot by one of Imagawa's bowmen. In the Japanese Eiroku era, Year 3 (or 1560 C.E.), the warlord Nobunaga Oda defeated his rival Yoshimoto Imagawa in Okehazama. Main protagonist Jubei's likeness is notably modeled after the late Japanese actor Yusaku Matsuda, who passed away over a decade prior to Onimusha 2's release. Onimusha 2 also adds a number of new features, such as four playable side characters managed by an intricate relationship system and a town area with opportunities for further NPC interaction. Like the original Onimusha: Warlords, the sequel shares many similarities with Capcom's elder survival-horror franchise Resident Evil, especially with regard to its " tank control" character movement and use of pre-rendered backgrounds.
With assistance from the powerful Oni as well as some newfound human allies, Jubei swears to destroy Nobunaga once and for all and halt the demons' plans for conquest. He returns home only to find the settlement wiped out by the demonic forces of resurrected warlord Nobunaga Oda. Set in feudal Japan, the plot follows a wandering swordsman named Jubei Yagyu who receives news of an attack on his home village. Onimusha 2: Samurai's Destiny is an action-adventure game developed by Capcom and exclusively released for PlayStation 2 in 2002.
