Onigiri is an action massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) developed and published by CyberStep. It is set in a fantasy land reminiscent of ancient Japan in which humans and non-humans such as oni and other yōkai coexist. The game was originally released in Japan on February 6, 2014 and in North America on July 1, 2014. The English console versions were released on October 2, 2015 for the Xbox One, on October 6, 2015 for the PlayStation 4 and January 31, 2019, for Nintendo Switch. The game's title means "oni cutter", reflective of the player character's background as an oni; the title can also be taken as a pun on onigiri, the Japanese rice ball. As of July 31, 2020, the Xbox servers were shut down and the game was removed for purchase from the Xbox store. On September 26, 2022, Nintendo Switch servers were also shut down, but Onigiri still remains playable on PlayStation Network and Steam.
