Just as in Okami, you play as a wolf who’s tasked with ridding ancient Japan of demonic impurities. The game takes place less than a year after the original Okami, which technically makes it a chronological sequel, though in practice, a lot of the game is recycled from the first title.

The breeding of the Okami concept with the DS hardware has resulted in a game with very different strengths and weaknesses than the PS2 original - sometimes for better, and sometimes for worse.

The same can be said of Okami and Okamiden. Though both of those games have one parent in common, anyone who has played them both will tell you that they are two very different animals. Breed the same game-dog with the Wii, and you get Dead Rising: Chop Till You Drop. Breed a Dead Rising dog with the Xbox 360, and you get the original Dead Rising.

Will the persuasive power of adolescent canine cuteness be enough to cause Okamiden to succeed where Okami once failed?Ĭhoosing which game to put a console on is a lot like matching two breeds of dog. Looks like Capcom is willing to tempt fate again with an Okami release on the eve of a major console release, but this time, they have the power of puppies on their side. Guess what? A new Okami game is coming out in the United States on the DS this month, in the same month that the 3DS launches in the United States. Capcom recently stated that they believe that the game undersold because it was released so closely to the launch of the Xbox 360/PlayStation 3/Wii. Okami is a beloved cult classic, but the game failed to meet sales expectations when it was first released on the PS2 back in 2006.
