Once Upon a Katamari is an upcoming 2025 action-puzzle game developed and published by Bandai Namco Entertainment for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, and Windows. The first original console installment in the Katamari series since Touch My Katamari (2011), it is planned for release on October 24, 2025.

Gameplay

[edit]

The game carries on the gameplay of previous Katamari games in which players must roll a sticky ball, known as a Katamari, over hundreds of objects, allowing it to grow in size and reach a desired size within a time limit.

Development

[edit]

In February 2025, Bandai Namco filed a trademark for Once Upon a Katamari.[2] This led to industry speculation over a new entry. The game was officially announced during a Nintendo Direct on July 31, 2025.[3]
