If it’s not enough that Capcom announced the return of Onimusha, Okami is finally getting a sequel. The untitled title doesn’t have a release window or platforms, but it’s directed by Hideki Kamiya, who also worked on the original. Check out the announcement trailer below, which confirms Amaterasu’s return.
The trailer description notes that this is a “new adventure” in a similar vein to the first game. Whether this means Orochi’s return remains to be seen. It may be a while before the title launches, with development recently kicking off under a new studio, Clovers, a resurrection of sorts for the original’s developer.
In the meantime, Okami is available for Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PS4, and PC. The action-adventure title is inspired by Japanese mythology with gameplay akin to The Legend of Zelda. It features the Shinto goddess Amaterasu, manifesting as a white wolf, as she arrives to save the lands from darkness. Check out our review of the HD version here.
