The Wii version of Capcom's critically acclaimed 2006 PS2 game gets a PAL release date.

 Capcom has revealed that Okami will be released for Wii across Europe on June 13. Originally created by the now disbanded Clover Studio, Ready at Dawn's port of the renowned action-adventure has enjoyed a mostly positive reception since its North American launch on April 15 of this year.    

A unique art style and lengthy playtime have earned Okami high praise from critics and gamers alike since debuting on the PlayStation 2 in 2006, but it has not succeeded commercially to the same extent. This European release date puts the game's launch just two weeks shy of the much anticipated arrival of Super Smash Bros. Brawl, threatening to overshadow its arrival and affect sales performance.

Glad to see Europe is getting this soon, the game rocks hard.

I really hope Okami does well in worldwide sales. Send a signal to Capcom that we want great traditional games as well!

I hope that Okami can rack up some decent sales, but I feel that it doesn't have much of a chance of that happening. If the Wii version hits over 300,000 units worldwide though that'd be a godsend.

Did they mention if it will include an Edge watermark?

Good, I was going to import this but that'll fit perfectly into my holidays.
