It’s a lot of fun and most levels are great. The graphics are beautiful and hold up as good as the Reroll games. It also has a larger sense of scope than the previous games, with a lot more objects and explorable areas on the maps.
It is almost my favorite in the series, but there are 7 stages locked behind (granted, cheap) DLC. These DLC levels are also the ones that switch up the formula.. without them, the game has little variety and is probably more like 3 stars. A couple of levels are also stinkers (Uranus and Sun, I’m looking at you). If everything was on disc I’d probably score it a bit higher.. if it ever got a Reroll, I would probably give it 5 stars. This is also probably a hot take, but I think it has the best music in the series. The Lonely Rolling Star remix here is a banger. At the very least, look up the OST.
A must-play for Katamari fans, and a good buy for platformer fans.
Note: The game has a bit of slowdown, but I played it on an Xbox One X. It is probably a safe bet that it’s not there on the Series X.
