God, this is still perfect, isn’t it.

It's like Arizona, but chess.

This is so brilliant. Nice to have Katamari back, and on a current gen console! I get the feeling I won’t be rolling up planets in this one though, so it would be nice to get a remake of whichever one let you do that.

Wow that video on the last page. Sent me back to the happy times of summer 04. I gambled on an import copy after seeing Stroker Ace heavily evangelising it as the greatest game of the forever. I wasn't disappointed. I was a bit Katamri'd out by the time of Beautiful Katamari though. It's time to dive back in on Switch, been a decade of no Katamari. I'm feeling it.

Or, probably wishful thinking on my part, DLC packs for all the levels from the rest of the series.

Just as fun as I remember  

[Unofficial Who]

It's fun and brilliant but very short. I can see why they skipped straight to releasing the second one in the PAL territories back in the day.

 

If you're a Katamari fan who just wants new levels it's perfect.

[Paulando]

Oh ffs, they could have added auto-save into it 

 

Yeah, just got caught out 

[yakumo]

Is there a physical release here in the UK or import only?

It does literally tell you to manually save or you’ll lose your progress!

Import only. Best bet is the JP or Asian version - US version is exclusive to one retailer.

[PikaStu]

Just noticed it’s up on Steam, so it’s getting bought!

 

Great memories of playing the original import back in the day.

[Retroid]

I'll probably pick it up after Christmas; it'd be cool if this got completely broken open to mods; I'd have to try making a level if a level editor ever cropped up.

Ursa Major makes me want to snap the Switch in half.

[acidbearboy]

Just listening to the soundtrack and it's bringing it all back - is the music all original in the Switch port? Might have to give it another play.

You godless beast, breathing life to this thread without it being a PSNow announcement.

Public Service Announcement: Katamari Damacy Reroll is now available on the PS4 and Xbox One! £24.99. I'm sorely tempted to double dip, it's absolutely worth it. 

[ymaohyd]

For all the talk of Switch tax this has been £15.99 on there since release and often 50% off in sales. I’ve been waiting for it to come to Xbox but I’m not paying nearly a tenner more for it. Wonder why such a price hike for these formats.

Also wish Beautiful Katamari would be added to BC.

Also Katamari Damacy Reroll is pretty cheap on PS Store, Xbox, and Steam again.

I've had the Switch physical version for ages.

 

Did they patch in a Dutch language option then?

Agreed. I did love the release of Katamari Damacy if only because it was never released in Australia and the only way I got to play it before the rerelease was in museums.
