What is Ratatan?
Ratatanis an upcoming rhythm action game announced during the BitSummit event in Kyoto, Japan.
Hence, many believe thatRatatanis the spiritual successor toPatapon.
Story
The details of the story are sketchy at this juncture.
And that theyll do so to the beat of upbeat music.
We wanted to make another game like that for the modern age.
In the teaser trailer, a giant dinosaur chases down cute eyeballs akin to the ones fromPatapon.
Itll definitely feature an adventure.
For now, though, most of the details we have rely heavily on speculation.
Itll also feature more adventures compared toPatapon.
The game will have a multiplayer option, accommodating up to four players.
It sounds a lot like Patapons gameplay, where players took control of an army of cute eyeballs.
RatatanandPataponcreator Hiroyuki Kotani further confirm the similarity between the two games.
He says that he intends to recreate thePataponexperience forRatatan.
However, he plans to add new elements to transitionRatataninto the modern age.
Development
Originally, Sony publishedPatapon.
But the Sony Japan Studio will shut down in 2021.
So,Ratatanhas adopted a new publisher, TVT, and a new developer too, Ratata Arts.
Thereafter, the development of the game can kick off.
We do know the team that will be working on the new game.
Starting withPatapongame designer Hiroyuki Kotani, whos been outspoken on the development process.
We have producer Kazuto Sakajiri, whos also worked onThe Eye of Judgement.
Trailer
Ratata Arts has released an officialRatatanteaser trailer.
Its only 26 seconds long and reveals nothing substantial concerning the gameplay, story, or release date.
All it does is show cute eyeballs akin to the ones in thePataponseries.
They spot a giant dinosaur and immediately scamper for safety.
So, keep an eye out for that.
Similarly, we have no information on the platforms the game is planning to launch on.
Lets wait and see.
