We do miss the bizarre and creative mind of Keita Takahashi, the man behind the wonderful Katamari series and Noby Noby Boy. It's why we're very excited for his latest game, Wattam, which looks equally bonkers. However, the charming little adventure seems to be taking an eternity, leaving PS4's library a little less colourful than it could be.
The ever vigilant people over on ResetEra may have found the answer in a new trademark. Bandai Namco has listed something called 'Katamari Damacy Reroll', and while it's not entirely clear what it is, the name suggests it could be a remaster of some kind. With very little information to go on, no grand assumptions should be made -- it could equally be a less exciting mobile game, or something else entirely.
We hope it does mean the ball-rolling simulator will be making its PS4 debut, though, as its silly humour and satisfying gameplay would be a breath of fresh air -- not to mention its soundtrack is still incredible. What do you think Katamari Damacy Reroll is? Will the Prince roll onto PS4 in the near future, or is this something else? Create new stars in the comments below.

Would definitely take a remaster. What a great series this is.
Once a friend of mine asked me to entertain the kids at her daughter's birthday and the Katamary OST saved my life!
If it has to be a remaster, I hope it'll be a Katamary Damacy + Katamary Forever + Beautiful Katamary combo.
My kids keep talking about Katamari. They replayed "Wonderful End of the World" - Katamari for Dummies on Steam - recently to pass the time.
I wonder if they could make it touch controls w/ the DS4 touch pad (and Switch screen). I keep hitting the touchpad in DQXI but nothing ever happens, it's the biggest button on the controller but it's going unused. Well I'm only 8 hours in so maybe later.
I wouldn't pay $60 for a Katamari remaster or trilogy collection but we'll see what's on offer at what price. Good news regardless.
very doubtful it is a new entry in the series... i bet it is a remaster of "katamari forever" on ps3 but with some new bells and whistles...
@Porco that is what i want though and for years i've wanted so i'm biting my nails at this recent news lol
I’d love a remaster, especially since the art style would make it look great even today.
I forgot Wattam existed though. I didn’t except not to be out at this point.
It definitely sounds like a remaster of some kind, though I'm definitely hoping for a compilation collection!
@MysticMask A collection would be great as well!
@Quintumply hypppppppppe!
’Reroll’ definitely sounds like a good name for a remaster (though I wouldn’t say no to a compilation either!) Such a fun series - it’d be cool to revisit on PS4.
