EDGE magazine has published its review scores for issue #428 (November 2026), running through a selection of recent releases and assigning scores across a broad range of genres.
Among the games covered is Onimusha: Way of the Sword, a title associated with Capcom's long-running Onimusha franchise, which received a 7 from EDGE in this issue.
EDGE, a UK-based games publication first launched in 1993, continues to be cited for its measured, print-focused reviews and critical perspective.
EDGE's November roundup lists scores for a wide slate of games.
The full published scores in issue #428 are:
- Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy – 8
- Beast of Reincarnation – 5
- Onimusha: Way of the Sword – 7
- Mortal Shell 2 – 8
- Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls – 8
- Halo: Campaign Evolved – 6
- The Sinking City 2 – 6
- No More Room In Hell 2 – 8
- Mistfall Hunter – 4
- Ambrosia Sky – 7
- Servant of the Lake – 6
- Hell Let Loose: Vietnam – 5
- Blood Dungeon – 7
Onimusha: Way of the Sword — paraphrasing EDGE's assessment — is praised for its sharp, split-second combat and standout boss encounters, but the review notes a disparity between the game's apparent runtime and its presentation.
EDGE argues the experience feels closer to a compact, high-intensity 15-hour adventure rather than a lengthier 25-hour campaign.
The reviewer adds that players who embrace a more reckless, upgrade-free approach will find a brisk, satisfying run, while those preferring methodical progression will rely on the game's safety nets to survive later encounters.
Ultimately, EDGE frames the game's pacing and length as a minor quibble against combat that often delivers best-in-class moments.
For readers tracking platform availability and retail windows, note that major announcements affecting Nintendo platforms typically surface during Nintendo Direct presentations and on the Nintendo eShop.
EDGE's reviews and the magazine's archive remain a reference point for past scores and critical context; their online archives host previous issues and review roundups for those who want to check older coverage.
This issue's roundup gives publishers and players a concise barometer of critical reception across varied releases, with Onimusha: Way of the Sword landing firmly in the mid-to-positive range according to EDGE's scoring.
