Taking place a few months after the events of Ōkami, Ōkamiden will follow the adventures of Chibiterasu – a young sun god who is summoned to protect the land. Following in the footsteps of Amaterasu, the sun-god-turned-wolf in Ōkami, Chibiterasu takes the form of an adorable wolf pup for the mission ahead. Chibiterasu will join forces with a rich cast of characters to fight off a new threat that has once more leeched the world of its vibrant colour. Beyond the battles, Chibiterasu and the partners you meet along the way will come to realize their inner potential and accept the kinship that comes with being the children of great heroes and gods.
Using the DS stylus, players will wield the Celestial Brush controlled by Chibiterasu. This powerful tool can attack enemies, paint helpful objects and structures into existence, and help Chibiterasu perform exceptional feats that will change the world before the player’s eyes. Chibiterasu’s partners in the game will have unique abilities of their own that help the player conquer puzzles and face an onslaught of perilous challenges. By blending vivid myth, artistic action and the innovative Nintendo DS, Ōkamiden has all the makings of a handheld classic. Ōkamiden takes the best elements of the Ōkami series and combines them with invigorating new features delivering an extraordinary adventure sure to please fans of the series and newcomers alike.

Okami is my favorite game. From its storybook art style and lovable characters to its intricate dungeons and epic boss encounters, Okamiden's predecessor has more crowning moments of awesome than you can shake a paintbrush at. Hence, it couldn't have been easy for a new development team to remain true to Okami's pedigree (on substantially less-powerful hardware) with this sequel. However, while falling noticeably short of its forebear's breathtaking highs, Okamiden's streamlined execution still makes for a solid and charming Zelda-esque adventure. Read More »
Okamiden trades Okami's majestic Amaterasu for the intensely cuddly Chibiterasu -- and at first blush, it looks every bit like the sequel it should be. Read More »
