\"Okami\"\/<\/a><\/p>\n

Apart from the release of Pragmata<\/a> this month, Capcom has announced it will be celebrating 20 years<\/a> of Okami<\/a>.<\/p>\n

This anniversary date takes place later this month on 20th April 2026, lining up with the title’s original Japanese release on the PlayStation 2 in 2006. As part of this, the Okami team says it’s currently preparing an anniversary event:<\/p>\n

“In just 15 days, on April 20, 2026, Okami will celebrate its 20th anniversary! We’re also preparing a 20th-anniversary event, so please look forward to it!”<\/p>\n

No other details have been shared at this stage, but attached to this announcement is an illustration of Amaterasu and Issun:<\/p>\n

As a reminder, a sequel to the original legendary action-adventure game was announced at The Game Awards in 2024. Hideki Kamiya (Devil May Cry<\/a>, Bayonetta<\/a>) will also be returning to direct this brand-new project.<\/p>\n

If you haven’t already played the first game, you can pick it up on the Switch eShop. For more details, check out our review:<\/p>\n

If we get any significant updates from this event, we’ll let you know.<\/p>\n
