The first Onimusha game to be a console exclusive (PS2).
The only new weapons in this game are the Ice Spear and the Earth Hammer. The Thunder Blade, Wind Blade, Fire Sword, Bow, & Gun all appear in Onimusha Warlords.
The original trailer had Jubei wearing an eye patch. He was modeled after the legendary Jubei from Japanese history. Capcom scrapped this and decided to continue the trend of modeling the main character after a famed actor.
