Ign hat ein bericht zu Onimusha: Dawn of Dreams geschrieben, mit Aussagen der Entwickler.
"Inafune hints that the biggest change for Shin Onimusha is its new camera system, which he refers to as a "Free Camera."
For Shin Onimusha, things are a bit different. "The camera is totally free this time," says Inafune, "and this gives a message to the player -- feel free to move about as you please. We're giving you a stage, and you, the player, can run about freely."
Resorting to specific numbers, he states, "If the action component for Onimusha has, until now, been eight percent, it will be ninety or ninety-five percent this time. To add that extra ten percent, the free camera was necessary."
