BODY: Capcom announced on August 20, 2026 that its CAPCOM END OF SUMMER SALE is now underway across major digital storefronts, bringing steep discounts to a broad slice of the publisher's catalog and add-on content.
The headline draw is New Onimusha: Dawn of Dreams, the 2006 PS2 samurai-action epic that was remastered for modern platforms earlier this year. This marks the game's very first appearance in a sale, landing at just ¥500 — a price that makes the long-dormant series an easy impulse buy for the curious.
The promotion spans the PlayStation Store, Nintendo eShop, and Xbox Store, so players on nearly every current platform can grab discounted titles and DLC. Capcom's seasonal sales typically fold in heavy hitters alongside back-catalog gems, meaning shoppers can expect everything from Monster Hunter and Resident Evil entries to Street Fighter and Devil May Cry bundles.
Sale windows differ slightly by storefront, so exact end dates depend on where you shop. Capcom recommends checking each platform's dedicated sale page for the full lineup and individual pricing before the discounts expire.
The insider take
For anyone watching Capcom from Tokyo, the Onimusha revival is the story worth flagging. The franchise sat idle for over a decade, but the company has been quietly rebuilding it — a remaster of the original Onimusha: Warlords, an all-new entry (Onimusha: Way of the Sword) announced for 2026, and a Netflix anime adaptation. Dropping Dawn of Dreams to ¥500 isn't just a summer discount; it's a low-friction on-ramp designed to seed a new audience ahead of the series' bigger comeback. Capcom has run this playbook before with Monster Hunter, and the timing here is no accident.
