Game description: As power-hungry warlords battle one another for control of feudal Japan, a young princess is kidnapped. Now, one lone swordsman, Samanosuke, boldly volunteers to rescue and avenge her. An entire legion of demon warriors stands between you and the princess, so you'll need all your weapons and magic to break through. The world of Onimusha: Warlords comes alive with waterfalls, wind effects, insects, and weather, but in order to triumph, you must stay focused on your mission.

There is a graphics clipping problem that enables you to see characters and objects through solid matter, but you can switch to software mode F9 and the game will be normal again. FPS: 55-60 FPS most of the time even in software mode. | Dhillel |

Game works well. The graphics clipping problem is still present, but not a big issue. The game has no problems when unscaled to 4X native resolution and the cut scenes look gorgeous. I did not need to enable any hacks, just make sure your EE/IOP and EU are set to default settings. Bios V2.0 was used. | Zrooney |

BIOS: USA 2.30, Runs great. Minor graphic issues like mentioned by others; 3D Objects can be seen through the pre-rendered backgrounds. Nothing really game-breaking though. | Ryudo |

BIOS: USA 1.60, 60fps @ 3x Scaling, all characters have a transparency issue, the background can be seen through all characters, this is especially visible during cutscenes, nothing major, seems to work fine otherwise. | NullNOVA |
Trivia
- Original names: 鬼武者 (SLPM-65010) & (SLPM-66501) & (SLPM-74206), 귀무자 (SLPM-67507)
- Also known as Onimusha
- Software mode will look a lot clearer if you set the interlacing mode to weave tff during gameplay and to auto during FMVs.
Known Issues
See-thru Environment
- Status: Fixed
- Type: Minor
- Description: There is a graphics clipping problem that enables you to see characters and objects through solid matter (pre-rendered backgrounds) using DX9/DX11 HW
- Workaround: Use software mode or OGL HW with Hardware Depth enabled (for the clipping) .If you come across any missing shadows set Blending Unit Accuracy at high.
Note: Keep in mind that OGL has worse performance for AMD GPU users. It runs a lot faster on NVIDIA cards because OGL is just better supported there for the time being.
Disappearing Enemies
- Type: Note (not an issue)
- Description: Sometimes when you engage an enemy they'll disappear but sometimes you can still hear them. This prevents you from continuing in a lot of places including boss fights.
- Workaround: Make sure your EE/IOP and VU Clamp modes are set to "Normal" and try again. (Thanks Ice Queen Zero)
