Despite having a dedicated fanbase, the Okami and Viewtiful Joe franchises have yet to achieve commercial success, leading Capcom to leave them untouched for years.

In a recent interview, Hideki Kamiya, the director of both titles, voiced his interest in creating a sequel.

“I still feel like I haven’t fulfilled my duty. So Capcom, please…”

As Kamiya points out, the initiative now lies with Capcom. Only they have the power to revive these franchises.

Hideki Kamiya says he would like to make a sequel to Okami and Viewtiful Joe 3!

Both are games that ended mid-way and as a creator he feels it’s his duty to make sequels for fans
