It looks like the much-anticipated Japanese title, Okami, has finally been announced for North America. Developer Clover Studios has put up a new page on their site that says that Okami will be playable on the show floor at E3. With its beautiful style that is already making fans in the states, Okami is definitely a title that will be worth watching for a release in North America. Clover Studios is the same development team that was behind the critically acclaimed titles Viewtiful Joe and Viewtiful Joe 2. By mixing in innovative and fun gameplay with a beautiful art style the games have found several fans. From what's been shown so far, Okami will outdo Viewtiful Joe in the style department. One look at any of the videos confirms this. The next step will be to see just what kind of game it is. For more information about that, be sure to check back during E3 for our coverage.
