Once Upon A KATAMARI rolls into release

Dateline: 10/24/2025

Once Upon A KATAMARI launched today for PC, PlayStation, Switch, and Xbox.

From Bandai Namco:

Developed by RENGAME and published by Bandai Namco Entertainment America Inc., it will be up to players once more to help The Prince restore the stars to the heavens after the mighty King of All Cosmos accidentally destroys the earth. This time, players will take The Prince and his Katamari -- a rolling ball that collects everything it touches starting from smaller objects and gradually to bigger ones -- across time itself, gathering up objects through history to replace the starry sky. Visit the Jurassic Period, the Ice Age, historic Japan and more set to one of the most iconic soundtracks in gaming history in Once Upon A KATAMARI.

In Once Upon A KATAMARI, players will experience the series like never before, on a journey across time featuring new stages, and with a new competitive multiplayer mode. The game’s memorable music returns with a new soundtrack, new customization options, and fun tools such as a new magnet to pull in nearby items. Players can choose to play as The Prince or any of the 68 cousins, all of whom can be customized with different colors and facial features. Use the customized character to standout in KatamariBall, a new four-player competitive mode where players attempt to roll the largest Katamari and convert it into points within a limited time. KatamariBall will support both online multiplayer and offline play against CPU opponents.
