Ikumi Nakamura has recently given an interview to IGN Japan. According to the interview she is planning to visit Capcom after the pandemic is over, and propose a new Okami game. She also said that the only personal guideline she has is the return of Kamiya-san as a director.
Nakamura believes a new Okami is very possible to become reality, but everything depends on Capcom. The company has been quite busy the last few years, with several of their games being very successful. Even the latest Resident Evil 3 Remake is being considered a success, despite being inferior compared to the Resident Evil 2 Remake.
Nakamura right now is busy working on GhostWire: Tokyo. A new action-adventure IP from Tango Gameworks founded by Shinji Mikami, the same studio behind The Evil Within series.
Okami was and still is a great game, and it would be wonderful to see another game of the same, if not better quality.

Thanks IGN Japan and Nintendoeverything.
Chris was born in the early 80’s along with the very birth of home gaming. After spending many maaany drachmas on arcades, his father decided to buy him a PC instead of going bankrupt. He lived through the advancing and development of the gaming industry, having played TONS of games on all platforms. He is always honest and will never hesitate to give his true opinion on a game no matter what. Loves stealth games and dislikes microtsansactions, DLC and pre-ordering…who doesn’t after all?!
