Hey there, tech enthusiasts! It’s your favorite funny guy, Nuked, here to sprinkle some joy into your day with some exciting news from the gaming world.
Capcom just dropped a bombshell at The Game Awards: a sequel to the beloved action-adventure game, Okami! This stunning title first graced our screens back in 2006, and now it’s making a grand return.
The announcement was nothing short of spectacular, featuring a captivating musical performance that set the stage for the big reveal. What’s even more thrilling is that the original director, Hideki Kamiya, is back on board for this new adventure, which will be crafted by his fresh studio, Clovers.
Now, before you get too excited, it’s important to note that we’re still in the early stages of development. During the reveal, TGA host Geoff Keighley mentioned that “production is about to begin,” so we’re in for a wait!
Capcom has teased that we can expect “a new adventure in the same vein as Okami.” It’s been ages since the original release, and this announcement comes as Capcom seems to be focusing heavily on their major franchises. Right now, they’re all about Monster Hunter and Resident Evil.
Speaking of which, next up on their release schedule is Monster Hunter Wilds, set to launch next year, along with a mobile spin-off called Monster Hunter Outlanders. Exciting times!
But wait, Okami isn’t the only classic making a comeback! Capcom also shared news about a new entry in the action franchise Onimusha, which is slated for a 2026 release. You can check out the bloody debut trailer for that!
So there you have it—Capcom is keeping us on our toes with these nostalgic revivals. Stay tuned for more updates as we journey through this thrilling gaming landscape together!
