New PS5 titles Onimusha and Dawnwalker top one million sales despite close release dates.
In a noteworthy feat for the PlayStation 5 library, two of its latest releases, Onimusha: Way of the Sword and The Blood of Dawnwalker, both broke the one million sales mark shortly after their respective launches. As reported by Push Square, Capcom’s contribution to the Onimusha series managed to achieve this impressive milestone in just 24 hours, further boosting the series’ overall sales to 10 million copies. This rapid achievement marks a significant entry for Onimusha in the action-adventure genre, with fans clearly eager for samurai action.
Interestingly, despite being released back-to-back, neither game seems to have significantly cannibalized the other’s sales, indicating strong demand in the market for robust PS5 exclusive titles. This dual success reflects a continued appetite for diverse game experiences, from the deeply rooted hack-and-slash gameplay of Onimusha to the new narratives presented in Dawnwalker.
Rumoured Killzone Remake In Development
Another noteworthy development is a rumour suggesting that a remake of a Killzone title may be in early development stages. The rumour, surfaced by Push Square, is fueled by sources speaking to MP1st, indicating a possible collaboration between Guerrilla Games and People Can Fly, the studio best known for Bulletstorm and Outriders. This potential remake could revitalize interest in the once-popular first-person shooter franchise, and fans of the series will be watching developments closely.
While these rumours are yet to be confirmed, they highlight an ongoing trend of modern remakes as a way to spark nostalgia and renew excitement for established franchises.
