Samurai's Destiny is a remaster of the 2008 PlayStation 2 original. Horrid creatures continue to massacre local villages, and it seems nothing can stop them. One young Samurai, Jubei Yagyu, has vowed to stop the spread of evil before it's too late.

Unofficial reports indicated that the Onimusha remaster sold very poorly, which dashed hopes that the sequels would get the same remaster treatment. Indeed, many assumed that the Onimusha franchise was effectively dead.
