Patapon 1 and 2 are drumming their way to new platforms this July
Bandai Namco have announced that Patapon and Patapon 2, a pair of beloved PlayStation games from the PlayStation Portable are coming to more platforms, namely Switch, PC and PlayStation 5. Check out the announcement trailer for the bundle below.
What is on offer is an action adventure where players use the rhythm of 4 Mystical Drums to command cute and mysterious eyeball-like creatures known as Patapons. The controls are incredibly simple, comprised of the rhythmic beating of four drums [Pata(←), Pon(→), Don(↓), Chaka(↑)]. The combination of what you press and the timing you keep, is what will march you towards victory.
This is not a straight port of the PlayStation Portable originals either, but rather a remastered collection. So the visuals have been enhanced, but there are also newly implemented features like the option to adjust the standard difficulty between Easy, Normal, and Hard, adjust the timing of button presses, and keep the drum icon displayed at all times.
The collection is set to release on July 11 for Switch, PC and PlayStation 5.
