It is almost 15 years since we get a new Katamari games where Bandai only bother to release port titles over past few years. For some reason, Bandai decided that they would be ending the drought for this family classic series by releasing a new title called Once upon Katamari! This is a big deal for Katamari fans like myself who got into the series through Me and My Katamari on PSP since the last original Katamari released, Touch my Katamari is a very lackluster game. Scheduled for October 2025 release, Once upon Katamari will be released on all modern console including Nintendo Switch which I will look forward to.
Katamari series has been always an awesome abstract adventure game where you control the Prince of Cosmos and roll a ball objects called Katamari and absorb anything along the way where the game usually climax with you rolling the world or universe. The premise may seem absurd at first, but Katamari series has always been a fun stress relieving game which you certainly need when you reach adulthood.
After more than a decade long break, Once upon Katamari try to offer something different compared to its predecessor where it provides more variety of era settings that Prince of Cosmos could time travel to and roll his Katamari to oblivion! This might be a fresh of new air since the past Katamari series mostly focus on modern settings and never really explore pre-modern eras with some few outliers. The main source of Katamari fun is the opportunity to roll into hundreds of variety of objects and the new direction that Once upon Katamari is certainly something that can be looked forward to.
I will definitely look for Physical copy on this one just like what I did with We Love Katamari.
