Okami HD Reviews
Okami HD has only one real flaw: some of you will have already played one of the two editions already published and will decide not to indulge in a new ride as Amaterasu. While the introduction of the Move turns out to be a rather limited and mostly skippable upgrade, high definition has allowed the already splendid artistic direction to touch unimaginable peaks. The visual spectacle that will form in your LCD or plasma TV is in fact difficult to describe.

Okami HD is literally a beautiful and fun game to play on the Nintendo Switch that celebrates both ancient Japanese culture and this console which is a match made in gaming heaven. The story is interesting, even though it can be a little long winded at times and the gaming environment is a pure joy to explore, especially when matched with the mechanics and controls of this title. All in all, Okami HD really kept me invested from start to finish and if you're looking for something a slightly otherworldly, this is the game for you.
The Switch version of Okami HD – with its portability, its motion controls, its touchscreen paintbrush and its compact charm – is hands own the definitive version of Okami.
Okami was a high point of the PS2 era, fusing its action to an incredible art style that was years ahead of its time.
Okami is still as beautiful and enjoyable as it was more than a decade ago, and that is an incredible achievement in and of itself.
Okami HD ,blending classic elements of its kind belonging to others fresher and more innovative, undoubtedly offers a successful and fully functional mix. The frame of the whole is obviously the technical and above all stylistic sector of the game, which raise the title to levels never seen before. Narrowing such a work in the circle of "video games" would be somewhat reductive, since Okami HD turns out to be a 360° experience, which fully involves the player in all senses, between fascinating scenarios of feudal Japan, oriental melodies and a touch of mystity. Ultimately, we fully recommend the use of the title to all fans of the genre and not.

Age has treated Okami HD well. Even if it didn't come with the resolution boost, it would still be beautiful thanks to the art style alone, and the fact that the game is now on various platforms simultaneously helps greatly. Even with the game's slow moments, the overall gameplay length feels worthwhile, and the mechanics make everything feel tight. As it stands now, Okami HD is really the definitive version of a classic and well worth checking out, especially if you've never played the previous iterations. Let's hope this finally gives Capcom a reason to bring a sequel and not another re-re-re-release in the future.
In Okami HD, we have one of the best and most beautiful games of the sixth console generation, and the great thing about it is that in both of these aspects it has passed the test of time.

Okami is as polished as a Zelda-like experience as they come and the Switch port is close to its best realization. If you've played it through before, there's nothing new here for you other than the soft warmness of a pleasant visual presentation and a smartly made adventure that stands up to the test of time. Okami HD is wonderful.
All in all, Okami HD on the Switch is a fantastic version of a fantastic game.
Marking its first outing on a handheld device, Okami HD retains all of the elegance and charisma from even its non-HD days, packing it all into an epic adventure with a budget price and intuitive control inputs. There is a degree of repetition involved with certain battles and events, but even this takes little away from the tale that unfolds.
Okami HD has proven to be a worthy port of this beloved classic with crisp and clear visuals backed by solid performance. It is an experience that shouldn't be missed especially if you have never played the original game.
A great game which, despite the age, still is ingenious, unforgettable and often spectacular.

Okami is one of the best classics from the PS2 days and a highly recommended title for PS4 owners that have never played it before. The game requires some patience from the player, however, it is an amazing adventure throughout feudal Japan even for today standards.

You will fall in love with Okami HD whether you play it for the first time (I envy you, in this case) or if you do it after giving a spin to any of the versions that were released in the past. As a remaster, it's poor, but as an Xbox One product, it's priceless.

Seven years after its first appearance and Okami feels just as fresh now as it did back in 2006.
Okami HD is what you would call a unique game. Traditional Japanese culture influences the art-style, the story and just about every inch of the game’s world, Nippon. Nippon itself is a peaceful place to start with, but that peace is suddenly shattered by the forces of evil. It’s up to god of the sun, Amaterasu (in the form of a white wolf), to get things back on track.
Okami HD on Switch is the definitive version of a classic
