Okami has no new game or anime entry in this cluster. Its music is back on national television in Japan via an NHK BS rebroadcast of Symphonic Gamers 5 on September 20, and the same game scores remain in circulation through orchestral programming.
The most recent Okami story in this cluster is a concert broadcast. NHK BS re-airs Symphonic Gamers 5, subtitled Melodies of Adventure Across Time and Space, at 0:40 on September 20, which is late night on September 19. The program draws from the Super Mario series, the Monster Hunter series, Kirby Air Ride, Chrono Trigger, Journey, Shadow of the Colossus, Tales of the Abyss, Granblue Fantasy, Okami, Sakuna: Of Rice and Ruin, and Final Fantasy IX. The Okami selection is Reset (Thank You Version). Game director Masahiro Sakurai and voice actress Ruriko Aoki appear as MCs. Performer and setlist details are on NHK's official website and the streaming service NHK ONE.
The remaining stories in the cluster are not about the Okami games themselves. They cover Good Smile Company's 1/7 scale figures of Hololive VTubers Shirakami Fubuki and Ookami Mio, priced at 22,000 yen each for September 2027, and a Taiwan-only immersive collaboration series themed around the same two talents, running from May 25 through July 31. They also cover Rocket-in-Bottle's Nekokami: Human Restoration Project, an indie cat puzzle game released for PC on April 14, and the Switch 2 edition of Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba - The Hinokami Chronicles 2, dated October 29 at 7,810 yen.
There is no verified news in this cluster about a new Okami title, remaster, or adaptation. Coverage of the name elsewhere is indirect: a concert setlist, a figure line, an indie game, and a Switch 2 port that share only parts of the romanized word. The clearest current signal for the game is the broadcast reuse of its score.
