Okami Announcement Likely for Japan Only, Not a Game
The official Okami Twitter account fired up last week, teasing an announcement for the beginning of golden week, a set of holidays in Japan. Although the same Twitter account was quick to confirm it would not be a new game, it hasn’t stopped people getting excited for the possibility of an HD port of Okamiden or an iOS release of the original PS2 classic. Capcom have today confirmed that’s not the case, and that actually, the announcement is probably Japanese-only.
Posting in response to a question on the Ask Capcom section of Unity, Christian Svensson confirmed that he had absolutely no information on the announcement:
“Whatever it is, it’s likely only in Japan… I’ve got no details on what they were referring to (but as has been stated, whatever it is, it’s not a game).”
So die hard Okami fans ought to lower their expectations and be prepared to import whatever mug or poster this amazing new announcement teaser was probably referring to.
