The highly anticipated Ōkami sequel, announced at last year's Game Awards, has finally received some clarification. While details remain scarce, IGN's recent interview with the project leads revealed key information. The sequel is indeed a direct continuation of the original game's storyline, confirming Amaterasu's return as the protagonist, despite director Hideki Kamiya's playful ambiguity.
Addressing the Nintendo DS prequel, Ōkamiden, producer Yoshiaki Hirabayashi acknowledged mixed fan reception. He stated that the sequel directly follows the original Ōkami's narrative, effectively sidelining Ōkamiden's storyline. This is a strategic move, given Ōkamiden's deviation from the original's narrative and its development without key original team members.
The original Ōkami's ending provides a natural launchpad for a sequel, featuring Amaterasu and another character embarking on an unexplored journey. This sets the stage for new challenges and adventures for both protagonists.
However, fans will have to exercise patience. The sequel is in its very early stages of development, with the early announcement driven by the team's excitement. Further updates are expected sometime in the future. You can view the full interview with the development team for more information.
