Small update: A few more details – The game will be playable at TGS and is 25% complete.
– Motohide Eshiro is the producer
– Kuniomi Matsushit is the director
– Chibiterasu is a new wolf character, sort of like an adolescent Okami
– Takes place after the first game
– Chibiterasu is taken to Sakuya by Issun, who asks for the wolf’s help
– Kuninushi (Susano’s son) and other characters will be with you throughout your journey
– Gameplay elements will be similar to the first game
– Unsurprisingly, you use the stylus to control the Celestial Brush similar to how it worked in the original title
– Need to work with Kuninushi to complete the game (ex: need to cross unstable bridge, so you’ll have to make a path for Kuninushi to follow with the stylus)
– Project technically started last December when Matsushita told Eshiro that he was interested in making a portable Okami and had developed a prototype
– Matsushita wants to try and reach out to many different people so that they can experience Okami
Thanks to Jake for the news tip!
Update: Details here
Not only has Famitsu revealed a brand new Okami title for the DS, but the magazine also announced a new game that is being developed by the Ace Attorney director and the producer of the sleeper hit Zack & Wiki. For now though, much of the title is shrouded in mystery. In fact, the only details we know right now is that it’s for the DS and it’s called Ghost Trick. We’ll fill you in with new information as it becomes available.

The mystery of Okamiden began a few days ago when a trademark was discovered. The name, which was filed by Capcom, hinted that a sequel to Okami would be on the way.
Now Famitsu has provided a full blow out of Okamiden and it looks as though all of the rumors about an Okami sequel were correct. However, the series is now finding a new home on the DS. Details are scarce right now, but the game is scheduled for release in 2010.
