It makes it really accessible and something neat to play if you're pressed for time.Complete the Test Of Valor. Completing that (be warned it's very obnoxious and tedious but just keep trying) will unlock this fantastic mode to enjoy.Īs short as the game can be, I think it's really cool that I can start a new game in Ultimate mode and be able to play through it again in about an hour's time. Completing the game with all 20 will unlock Oni Spirits - a mini game from the Extras menu. You need the 20 fluorites (which you can run through the game in a couple hours on easy mode, using a location guide from the interwebz to collect them all rather quickly). If you haven't unlocked this mode then I highly recommend it. The special attack is guaranteed death to anything besides bosses and even they can only take a couple rounds of it (save for Forti at the end who takes a fair beating no matter what you're using. That beast of a weapon does more damage in a single hit than all other weapons combined in their maxed out state. That's how big a different the Bishamon sword makes in the game. It took me a whole 1:17 to complete it again. Being able to begin the game with the (bad ass) Bishamon sword is a real treat. Boy did I forget how fun Ultimate mode was. The final (3rd) time I completed it over this weekend - which I literally just finished - was in Ultimate Mode. albeit my first time through Onimusha back 100 years ago was closer to 15 hours - it had a lot to do with me being scared of it because I had been scarred by Resident Evil previously). The first time took about as long as I remember from my PS2 days, a little over 4 hours (having retained a decent bit of my knowledge of the game from about 15 years ago. I've played through the game three times now in the last couple days.
