**LOS ANGELES –** In a stunning surprise, Hideki Kamiya’s studio revealed a highly anticipated sequel to the beloved classic, *Okami*, during The Game Awards 2024. The announcement, featuring a live orchestra and a solo drummer, showcased a brief teaser trailer depicting what appeared to be Amaterasu running across a field. While details remain scarce, the reveal confirmed *Okami 2* is officially in development.

Kamiya himself has publicly expressed his desire to revisit the franchise, even suggesting he assembled a new team for this project after expressing some dissatisfaction with the original team’s capabilities.
