Oninaki is an upcoming action RPG for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and Steam, from the developers of I am Setsuna and Lost Sphear. It tells the story of Kagachi, a Watcher whose duty is to protect Life after Death.
The Watchers maintain order between The Living World and The Beyond.
We travel between worlds, rescuing the Lost who have wandered from the path.
You mustn't grieve. Grief fills the dead with regret.
When the dead carry regret they lose their way, and those who are lost cannot be reborn.
And so, we Watchers pray for reincarnation as we carry out our duties.
