Overview

The Oni Gauntlet is the defining item of Onimusha: Way of the Sword. Musashi is equipped with a sentient gauntlet that consumes the souls of defeated enemies, and removing it would kill him. Yellow souls replenish health, red souls buy upgrades, and blue souls power the Oni Armaments. Enhancing the katana at a Spirit Mirror raises Regular Attack Power, Issen Power, and Oni Armament Power simultaneously.

Field Tips
  1. 01

    Yellow souls replenish health — let them absorb before pushing forward.

  2. 02

    Red souls buy upgrades, so spend them deliberately rather than hoarding.

  3. 03

    Blue souls power Oni Armaments — the special weapons that deal large damage to enemies.

  4. 04

    Enhance your katana first: it raises Regular Attack, Issen, and Oni Armament Power together.
