As a gamer who has journeyed through countless virtual realms and witnessed the rise and fall of studios, I must admit that Hideki Kamiya‘s return to Capcom for an Okami sequel feels like a long-awaited reunion with an old friend. The nostalgia is palpable, reminding me of the golden age of the PS2 era when Clover Studio was at its peak.
Among the notable events at The Game Awards, one unexpected revelation stands out: seasoned game creator Hideki Kamiya is teaming up once more with Capcom to launch a new Okami installment, this time under the auspices of a freshly-formed studio called CLOVERS.
Reminders for some of you: Clover Studio, a remarkable subsidiary from the PlayStation 2 era, is worth remembering. This studio was behind timeless hits such as God Hand and Viewtiful Joe, which were nothing short of all-time classics.
Eventually, Kamiya found himself at PlatinumGames, a position that led him to direct beloved titles such as Bayonetta. However, he decided to leave the company last year.
In the letter detailing his homecoming, Kamiya conveyed that he was simultaneously taken aback yet elated – a feeling that defied verbal expression, much like waking from a dream.
He expressed poetically: “In much the same way as a robust sun rises, [Okami’s sequel] is now in motion. However, it remains a bud slowly unfurling. We are eager to adorn this new Okami with vibrant blooms and strive to honor the pledge of ‘the next time’ with our utmost dedication.
It appears that the next Okami game may not be with us in the near future, but the surprising return of Kamiya to Capcom for further development of the series offers an exciting prospect. We eagerly anticipate where this new chapter will take us.
