Once Upon a KATAMARI Overview
Once Upon A KATAMARI is the latest mainline installment in the Katamari Damacy series, arriving 14 years after the last new console entry. It revolves around the King of All Cosmos, who has once again accidentally destroyed the Earth and all the stars.
To fix his blunder, he sends his son, the Prince, on a mission to travel through different historical eras—such as the Jurassic Period and the Ice Age—to roll up objects with his Katamari and restore the starry sky. While retaining the series' signature eccentric rolling gameplay, Once Upon A KATAMARI introduces new mechanics, including support tools like a magnet to attract items, as well as a new online and offline four-player competitive multiplayer mode called "KatamariBall."
The game was released on October 24, 2025 on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC, and those with save data from previous re-releases can unlock a special playable character.
