Game Description
Heroes don't get any more powerful than in Okami, an innovative action saga that lets you play as a god! Using a stunning traditional style of Japanese art, Okami pulls from Japanese folklore to tell the tale of Amaterasu. A wolf-bodied sun god, Amaterasu must restore color to a wasted land, laid bare after the return of the legendary monster, Orochi. Fight demonic enemies using your Celestial Brush and other potent attacks as you create and destroy at will. Travel through a world created with visuals echoing the watercolors and calligraphy of centuries-old Japanese scrolls. Fight real-time battles, solve puzzles, and restore order to the land.
