Ratatan, a rhythm-based roguelike game by the creators who once brought the rhythmical real-time strategy game Patapon to life, has officially announced its early access release date. Mark your calendars for September 19, 2025, for this exciting launch.
As we inch closer to the date, specific details about Ratatan will be revealed during an ‘AGRS Channel’ live stream slated for September 14, 2025. The game’s Steam page, which is currently active, has already begun giving players an exciting glimpse into the unique gameplay that awaits. The preview also offers a sneak peek into the range of content ready to debut with the early access launch.
One of the intriguing features of Ratatan is the ability to control Ratatans – characters armed with varying toolsets of equipment. Choices range from bombs, hammers, scythes, to staves. These weapons add a layer of strategic depth as you navigate through the gripping world of Ratatan.
Additional revelations include a new swamp biome called Jam Jammer Jungle Journey and an icy terrain named Frozen Flower Fantasia. These will be the third and fourth areas of exploration in this immersive game world.
The anticipated ‘AGRS Channel’ showcase will guide players through what to expect as Ratatan transitions into its early access phase. Topping the list of important highlights will be a roadmap indicating the post-launch journey. This roadmap will likely address details such as the expected duration of development, projected timelines for new world releases, interaction with player feedback, and more.
Keeping in mind that Ratatan draws inspiration from Patapon-style gameplay, gamers can ease into familiar terrains with the remastered games of the Patapon series. Earlier in 2025, Bandai Namco released Patapon 1+2 Replay, a refreshing rendition of the franchise’s first two games initially featured on PSP.
Set to march into the early access battlefield on PC via Steam on September 19, 2025, Ratatan is a highly anticipated release. Meanwhile, the classic Patapon 1+2 Replay is available on PS5, Switch, and PC.
