Hiroyuki Kotani, creator of the classic PSP rhythm game Patapon, is teaming up with Tokyo Virtual Theory to bring Ratatan, an action rhythm roguelite. It looks like a spiritual successor to Patapon and features a gameplay that features rhythm and side-scrolling action with up to 4 players. To accompany the announcement, a reveal trailer was aired:



RATATAN is a game that combines rhythm and side-scroller action, supporting up to 4 players in online co-op gameplay. Players defeat enemies by sending commands through dynamic and passionate music to the Cobuns, making for an enjoyable adventure with thrilling battles intertwined with rhythm and action.

In addition to attack and defence rhythmic sequences, there are also actions that allow the Ratatan to move freely, withunique skills for each character, further deepening the musicality of the game. Players will enter “fever mode” when they accurately follow the rhythm sequences. In fever mode, the background music changes interactively, and characters perform various actions.

RATATAN also incorporates the popular Roguelike system. In each adventure, Ratatan and its Cobun randomly receive different power-ups and rewards in every battle. Players will experience different adventures each time, with various power-ups bringing various diverse effects and increasing gameplay possibilities.

With Nelnal as the game illustrator and character designer, RATATAN features richer game graphics and more characters than before. It has also added a lot of new content, including a brand new system and mini games for multiplayers. It will utilize TVT’s own “Theory Engine” to provide a fast and stable environment for online multiplayers.

Ratatan will be released on PC, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X in 2025.
