Okami HD, the remastered version of the critically acclaimed PlayStation 2 classic, is currently on sale for a mere $4.99, marking its lowest price ever. While PlayStation users might be disappointed to miss out, this incredible deal is available exclusively on the Nintendo Switch eShop and the Xbox Store.
Originally a PlayStation 2 exclusive released in 2006 by Capcom, Okami stood out amongst giants like The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, Gears of War, The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, New Super Mario Bros., Final Fantasy XII, and Bully. While not as commercially successful as these titles, Okami garnered significant praise for its unique art style and captivating gameplay.
This timely price drop coincides perfectly with the recent announcement of a sequel at The Game Awards 2024, a full 28 years after the original’s release.
For those unfamiliar with this masterpiece, Okami HD lets you experience the game’s renowned Sumi-e ink art style in stunning high resolution. Players take on the role of Amaterasu, the Japanese sun goddess in the form of a legendary white wolf, embarking on a quest to vanquish the eight-headed demon Orochi, who has plunged the world of Nippon into a desolate wasteland.
The $4.99 price tag on the Nintendo Switch eShop is available until January 1st, while Xbox players can snag the deal until January 3rd. After these dates, the 75% discount disappears, and the price reverts to the standard $20.
This discounted price offers an excellent opportunity to experience this classic title before its sequel arrives. Don’t miss out on this limited-time offer to immerse yourself in the beautiful world of Okami.
