The short buying answer
Onimusha: Way of the Sword fits players seeking a dedicated single-player sword-action game built around Miyamoto Musashi, parries, defensive maneuvers, special attacks and Oni Gauntlet soul absorption. It is not a fit for someone who requires co-op or competitive multiplayer, because the official feature list currently identifies only single-player.

Edition caveats
Deluxe bundles include equippable charms and cosmetic sword appearances. Capcom explicitly says sword appearances do not alter battle performance. Some pre-purchase content may become available later, so cosmetics should not be described as permanently exclusive without a newer statement.
