Examiner: "In 2006, Capcom released a wacky action Playstation 2 game titled God Hand. Despite mixed review scores, it became a cult hit. Don't expect Capcom to continue publishing God Hand games in the future, however."
Hideki Kamiya, Atsushi Inaba, and Shinji Mikami resurface with new game development studio.
As of today, the studio behind Viewtiful Joe, Okami and God Hand is no more. Clover Studio was shuttered by main shareholder Capcom. At a Board of Directors' meeting was held, and it was decided that Clover should dissolved. The reason? According to the Capcom IR release:
God Hand combines a "hard boiled" atmosphere with humorous elements in a "comical, violent" action game directed by Shinji Mikami (Resident Evil 4) and produced by Atsushi Inaba (Phoenix Wright). The official God Hand Homepage is now online.
Capcom has let loose an updated release list for some of their upcoming titles.
