Katamari Forever demo out in Japan News

PlayStation 3 News by Tom Bramwell

24 July, 2009

Namco Bandai has released a demo of Katamari Forever on the Japanese PlayStation Store to coincide with the game's launch in the region.

Obviously that means it's in Japanese, and that you can't access it with a European or US PSN account, but it's not particularly difficult to create a Japanese one if you're interested in checking the game out.

The PS3-exclusive Katamari Forever is due out in Europe this September, and is another attempt to wring some fun out of Keita Takahashi's classic PS2 concept of growing a ball by rolling it over objects which then stick to it.

You can read our recent Katamari Forever hands-on preview to find out how it relates to the others in the series, or indeed what it's all about in general if you're a newcomer.

I loved the first two Katamari games, but I don't think I'll play another one ever again.

Nope, only in Japanese. doesn't matter much though you could just hit x until it loads.

Darn I wish I kept my HK account - I had to suffer great difficulties in creating a Japan account - I watched a youtube vid to get it right. Katamari Tribute as it's known over there is the best it's ever been and Hallelujah to the new jump feature (is it new?)! Really loving the new graphic styles!

It's not that hard to find either, since the word "TRIBUTE" is visible in English. Had a quick blast through this and it felt like Katamri alright. Controls work, the music is great and the new graphical style is real pretty. Pretty sure I'll be getting this when it comes out over here. Don't know if there'll be any innovations this time, but well, if it ain't broke...
