Ratatan is marching its way into your console library on July 16

"At this time, we have determined that the multiplayer experience on Nintendo Switch has not yet reached the quality level we aim to deliver. As a result, we have decided not to proceed with a Nintendo Switch version for now."

"Although the studio of Ratata Arts may not sound familiar, this group includes several devs from team that created the Patapon games, a series that began in 2007. That lineage is clear in the core concept and in the slightly brain-breaking level of attention required to keep your little army of Cobuns in sync and on beat."

"Ratatan brings some roguelite and RPG customization into the mix along with the familiar rhythm mechanics."

Ratatan is a rhythm roguelite action game developed by Ratata Arts, a studio featuring several developers from the original Patapon series. The game combines rhythm mechanics with roguelite and RPG customization elements, requiring players to keep their army of Cobuns synchronized and on beat. Originally available on PC as early access since September, Ratatan will officially release on July 16 across Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S. The original Nintendo Switch version has been cancelled, as the development team determined the multiplayer experience did not meet their quality standards for that platform.
