Katamari Damacy Rolling Live Update Adds Stages and Music

• Katamari Damacy Rolling Live's latest update introduces new music tracks and additional stages.
• This mobile version of the beloved cult classic remains exclusive to Apple Arcade.
• The core gameplay revolves around rolling items into an ever-growing ball.

Among the many unique titles on Apple Arcade, few anticipated the arrival of the legendary cult classic Katamari Damacy. Yet, Katamari Damacy Rolling Live has made its way to mobile, and it just received a significant update. This patch brings fresh levels and music to this handheld adaptation of the iconic rolling-and-collecting game.

If you're new to Katamari Damacy, the concept might seem unusual at first. However, Katamari Damacy Rolling Live faithfully captures the original's simple charm. Your goal is to roll a ball around, picking up objects to make it grow from a tiny speck into a massive sphere.

Beyond just growing your ball, your mission is to transform your katamari into a 'star that lights up the sky.' You can also hunt for hidden collectibles and unlock various 'cousins' to use as alternate player characters. All of this is set to the same delightfully quirky and jazzy soundtrack fans remember.

Keep On Rolling

It's great to see Katamari Damacy Rolling Live gaining so much momentum. Its popularity is well-deserved; despite the live-stream themed presentation, this version delivers the same cult classic experience that many players cherished growing up.

The game also highlights a key advantage of Apple Arcade. Without the need for microtransactions to fund ongoing development, titles can offer a complete experience much closer to what you'd find on consoles or PC.
