Why you might like it

  • Onigiri stands apart from conventional medieval MMORPGs through a colorful fantasy version of ancient Japan populated by oni, yōkai and figures drawn from Japanese myth. It is a good match for players who value an eccentric setting and anime-style character presentation over a restrained Western-fantasy tone.
  • Combat is real-time and weapon-driven, with the player able to develop proficiency across multiple weapon types rather than being permanently locked to one traditional class. Partner characters travel with the hero, participate in the story and can contribute directly to battle.
  • Long-term systems include weapon enhancement, smelting, Magatama crafting, special Ougi skills and summonable partners. The currently maintained English service still provides official Steam and PlayStation routes for players who want to explore this older action MMORPG.
Before you play

Things to consider

  • Platform history is fragmented. The Xbox service closed in 2020, the Nintendo Switch service closed in 2022, and earlier regional console services also ended; availability, accounts and progression should not be assumed to transfer cleanly between every remaining version.
  • This is an older free-to-play MMORPG with extensive upgrade and item systems. Repetition, inventory management, dated presentation and monetized convenience are more prominent than in a modern premium action RPG.
  • Although attacks occur in real time, animation, targeting and networking reflect the game's age. Players wanting highly polished character-action combat or consistently busy low-level zones should set expectations around a long-running niche service rather than a newly launched mainstream MMO.
