Patapon is a rhythm-based 2D platform/action game marching to PS4 with revitalized graphics output in 4K resolution and 1080p. 

An iconic PlayStation game, players are tasked with leading the colorful Patapons, a brave and noble tribe, through a series of epic battles against opposing armies and gigantic monsters.  In a distinct gameplay twist, action and rhythm are intertwined as players utilize drumbeats to march, attack, and defend, ultimately leading the Patapon tribe to victory. 

For years the Patapon tribe has lived in the desolate frontier, driven from their home by the evil Zigoton army.  Behind the Patapons' cute exterior, lies a fierce warrior spirit that can only be commanded by the beat of their God’s war drum.  They wait for the day that the "Almighty" will return, to lead them against their enemies and bring them back to their homeland.  Finally, their wait has come to an end as the drums of war are heard once again. 

According to a product page on the Playstation Store, Patapon Remastered will be available August 1, 2017 for $14.99.
