A sequel to the critically acclaimed game Okami has been announced, developed by Hideki Kamiya's new studio Clovers in partnership with Capcom. The announcement was made during The Game Awards, revealing a teaser trailer that showcased the signature painterly style of the original game.

Kamiya, who previously expressed regret over the original's reception, has returned to the franchise after founding PlatinumGames and leaving the studio in 2023. The sequel's development signals a revival of interest in the beloved series, although no release date or platforms have been disclosed.
