Just when I thought I was tired of Katamary Damacy, Katamari Forever is announced. And after the trailers and material I’ve seen, I find myself excited about the franchise again. The Prince has that power over us.
Aside from a ton of new screenshots, we have details on some of the new modes and features of the upcoming PlayStation 3 release. There’s a new Race mode that has you moving on track to get as much as you can as fast as you can. Another has you aiming at a perfect size; too big or too small loses. There’s also a cooperative mode where two players are in charge of one analog stick each. They’ll have to work together to make a big katamari.
There are also new pictures of the menus, which now look like pop-up story books. Oh, and the King of Cosmos looks like a robot now.
Katamari Forever will be released in Japan on July 23rd for PlayStation 3. And if you’ve missed it, be sure to check out the crazy Japanese trailer for the game after the jump, now with higher quality video and audio. Puppet monkeys and chickens get rolled up.
