The ancient Mighties had departed, and the Patapons lived sadly in a corner of the world, which drove them to become fierce warriors that can only be commanded by the beat of the drums, an instrument at the command of the Mighty One (the player). Their wait has finally come to an end as the drums are heard once again by the Mighty One’s return to guide the Patapon tribe through their adventures to fight against challenging enemies and set out for Earthend, where the legendary “IT” is said to be.
PATAPON 1+2 REPLAY combines the first two entries in the PATAPON series, which debuted on Sony’s PlayStation®Portable (PSP) in 2007 and 2008, respectively. The game blends unique rhythm-based action and real-time strategy 2D gameplay, where players must overcome their enemies and return the Patapon to Earthend. As the Mighty One, players will be tasked with issuing rhythmic commands intertwined with a catchy soundtrack set in charming and colorful environments. Players will find the game easy to jump into with its intuitive and rhythm-based controls but will ultimately need to hone their skills for precise timing and tactical thinking to lead the Patapon tribe to victory in battles.
Along with updated graphics, new for PATAPON 1+2 REPLAY are difficulty settings and additional quality-of-life improvements. The new title also features 1-4 player local co-op on Nintendo Switch. Players can customise their army with troops varying in distinct roles and combat styles such as the flag-waving “Hatapon” who leads the charge, the horse-riding “Kibapon” who charges into battle, and the bow-wielding “Yumipon” who strikes from afar. Patapons can also be enhanced by combining items collected from rare materials through stages and missions. With over 400 types of weapons and equipment, players can build their personalized Patapon unit and tackle diverse stages and formidable enemies.
