Onimusha : Dawn of Dreams

Peace lasted just fifteen years before Japan once again awoke to a blood-red dawn. The demons had returned and once again the Onimusha had to rise and fight together...

A new dawn, a new hero, a new enemy...

* Onimusha is back – the epic series returns in a new form with dramatic action sequences that see you battling in stunning, true three-dimensional arenas for the first time.
* Partner swapping system – choose from four heroes to partner Soki, the lead Onimusha, throughout the game. In battle, choose and control the two simultaneously, switching between them at any moment, for strategic advantage.
* Upgrade your heroes with new powers and weapons – each has their own strengths, weaknesses and fighting styles to discover and master.
* You can now rest between missions at the base camp, using the break in action to power up characters and obtain information from allies that will help with future missions. It is also possible to go back and retry previously cleared stages from the Camp – depending on the ally you choose, previously impassable barriers may open up the way to new items.

* Can you survive the new Tests of Valor? At certain locations within the game a Test of Valour mini-game will be triggered. The objective to each these tasks will be displayed on the screen before the mission starts and completion will earn you new and rare items…
* With a brand new graphics engine, Dawn of Dreams continues with the Onimusha tradition of outstanding graphics and pushes the PS2 to its limits.

OK! I'm sold! I'm going downtown in a few hours and getting my hands on a copy of the fourth game in the Onimusha series. It came out just yesterday and for just €44,99 it's a bargain! With over 20 hours of gameplay and me being a fan of the series, I couldn't live without it :P
