“Let’s do it, Phil.”

Kamiya has now founded a new studio, Clovers, and isdeveloping a sequel to Okami.

A new post on the Clovers account includes a video showing “some excitement around Kamiya’s desk”.

“He was reminiscing about the development of Scalebound while watching YouTube videos,” reads the post.

“It never made it to release, but even now, he still feels proud of it.”

Kamiya is quoted as saying: “I’d love to make it again someday.”

“He’s got his own headphones and smartphone,” Kamiya says in the video.

“Yeah, exactly!

That’s the big trend right now,” replies Kamiya.

Lets do it, Phil !

That’s not the last we’ve heard of the game, though.

Kamiya himself added: “I’d like to appeal toPhil Spencerdirectly!

Let’s do it, Phil!”

It seems Kamiya is once again trying that tactic to appeal to Xbox boss Phil Spencer.

Will it work this time?

Is Kamiya now free to resurrect Scalebound with Clovers?

Can Phil work his magic this time?
