‘Ratatan’ is being developed for unspecified platforms by Patapon creator Hiroyuki Kotani, with audio by original Patapon musician Kemmei Adachi. The game will be crowdfunded via Kickstarter with the campaign due to start on July 31.

the game’s developers told VGC in a private meeting ahead of the reveal that the game would include roguelike elements and multiplayer for up to four players.

“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,” explained producer Kazuto Sakajiri in an interview with VGC.

“Pata Pata Pata Pon” is forever etched in memory. Hope this one turns out good and available for the steam deck!

On a personal note, I could not enjoy these games as much on the console as I did on my psp. Looking forward to playing the new one on steam deck.

Same, I could never get the hang of the timing on console. PSP felt more consistent to me.
