📝 Weekly Oni Memo #55

The scorching heat of July continues in Japan how is everyone keeping?

The other day, we travelled to Kyoto for a promotional photo shoot. Walking through places with such deep connections to the game, I was once again reminded of Kyoto’s unique charm. I’ll be sharing more about that experience in the near future, so I hope you’ll look forward to it.

This week, I’d like to introduce Izumo no Okuni, a historical figure closely associated with Kyoto. Izumo no Okuni is widely known as the founder of Kabuki dance. Her costumes were flamboyant and striking, possessing a splendour that captivated audiences at first glance.

One of her hobbies is sewing, and she is so skilled that she even makes her own bags. In the game, this particular talent may come to life in an unexpected way. How will it be incorporated into the story? You'll have to wait and see. Until then, enjoy imagining the possibilities as you play.

Hey everyone, it’s been really hot out lately! As we head toward release day, our promotional activities are kicking into high gear. The whole team is taking good care of our health so we can keep the excitement going!

We recently released our benchmark tool. If you're planning to play on PC, we highly recommend not just playing the demo, but also using the benchmark to test your PC's performance.

The full game features a far more expansive, wide-open design of Kyoto than in the demo. We created the benchmark specifically so you can test how your system handles sword-fighting action and cutscenes in this large environment, so please give it a try!

Also, regarding our recently reopened Nintendo Store and Nintendo eShop pages, the development team is currently preparing a demo for Nintendo Switch 2! For those of you planning to play on it, we ask for just a little more patience.

We are working hard to release this demo before the full game launches, so please look forward to it!

The attached photo shows Musashi from the opening scene of the story, as seen in the benchmark tool.

This time, we'll talk about the formidable foe "Dokyo."

Dokyo is a mad scientist immersed in creating new phantom demons at a laboratory beneath Kyoto.

In fact, she's the only character who speaks in the Kyoto dialect, and unlike other phantom demons, despite his intellectual and eerie appearance, there's an air of allure about him somewhere-he's a standout presence in this work.

Another thing I'd like you to pay attention to is her fingertips. They're characterized by red thread wound around his fingers, weaving something like cat's cradle.

This thread might be connected to battles or gimmicks...!?

Be sure to look forward to it!
