Once Upon A Katamari

Once upon a time a katamari rolled through both past and present. In this story across time, the adage endures: Let The Good Times Roll! Now onward through new worlds to roll up thy heart's desires and to restore the stars! 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 stand out 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.

  • A Shiny New Katamari Damacy Adventure Awaits: Experience new stages and a fabulous new soundtrack! Behold a fresh rolling experience, with never-before-seen support tools like the magnet to draw in nearby objects! How…attractive!
  • Roll Through the Ages: The King was so well-behaved until he mistakenly crushed the Earth, the Moon, and numerous planets while fiddling with a peculiar scroll. Now roll your katamari through the Jurassic Era, Ice Age, historic Japan, and more eras to rebuild the sky's dazzling field of stars.
  • Keep the Family Close With Cousin Customization: Play as The Prince, or choose among his 68 cousins and kin to play as. Customize their colors and faces to create as many original Cousin designs as there are stars in the sky.
  • Compete in Celestial 4-Player KatamariBall: Conquer the game of KatamariBall, the galactic sport of choice across the Cosmos! Compete online against cousins around the world, or hone your skills with scintillating offline play against CPU opponents.
