“We are actually quite far along in the production cycle and feel very confident in getting everything into the game by April 2025!” developer Ratata Arts said in anFAQearlier this year.
A PC beta is planned and will “most likely” take place in the latter half of next year, with console tests also under consideration but yet to be confirmed.
Originally released forPlayStation Portablein 2007, Patapon is a rhythm-based 2D platform / action game in which players command an army of cute anthropomorphic eyeballs known as “Patapons” that can be instructed to move forward, attack, defend and retreat by using a sequence of drum beats.
The game received two sequels on PSP, and the first two games were remastered with 4K visuals for PS4.
“The three main game concepts are over 100 cute characters fighting it out on screen, four-player simultaneous battles, and more adventure and roguelike elements than Patapon had,” producer Kazuto Sakajiri explained in a recentinterview with VGC.
