WHAT?! This is certainly a “holy shit” announcement! Also, is Kamiya back with Capcom?!
Now this is the god tier shit I needed. Everything else is neat but.. this is what I need.
I have conflicting feelings on this, Okami felt like the kind of game that didn't need a sequel imo, but well, might as well get excited now that it's happening, heh. Kamiya being on it makes me believe in this.
2024 really was the year of announcing 2 decade long anticipated sequels lol
WOW!! One of my top 3 favorite games of all time. Really excited about this!
Great news. The original is incredible
The original is in my top 3 games. So yeah I am happy about the announcements but when is the release date?
It was said they're just getting started on development, so I wouldn't expect it any sooner than 2028 at the earliest.
This is the most important announcement I've heard in a long time.
I'll give it to them. This is indeed holy shit. This is the last game I ever expected. And Kamiya is back?! Help us all, we're in for a treat!
OMG
Holy shit, indeed. After all this time, one of the most beautiful and creative games ever gets a proper sequel!
That was probably the most surprising and exciting moment for me. Kamiya directing it too.
This and Virtua Fighter 6 definitely fall under "holy shit."
Played the original on Wii and really liked it and really also liked the visual aesthetic of the game. Hope this one holds up game play wise.
And at least this isn’t a remake/remaster of an old game.
It's a shame they showed literally nothing.
Okami is such a great game.
