Reactions to the early footage are mostly positive, with people excited about the gritty, bloody swordplay and the dark fantasy look of Edo-era Kyoto. The gameplay and graphics are getting strong praise, and Capcom's return to the series has generated a lot of buzz. The main hesitation is around performance, especially on consoles, with many skeptical about how it will run on the Switch 2. Some are also waiting to see if the story and difficulty live up to the promising action.
