Namco announced today that they are bringing the sequel for Katamari Damacy to the U.S. Titled We Love Katamari, the short protagonist Prince and the odd and eccentric King of All Cosmos return to fulfill their respective roles. There is a new co-operative mode, where both players control one part of the clump, along with an expanded Battle Mode for competitive action.

"Katamari Damacy was the break-out hit of 2004 garnering tremendous accolades while delivering an innovative yet intuitive style of play to gamers," said Yoshi Niki, Business Unit Director at Namco. "We are hard at work on the second installment of this landmark series that will deliver a new level of originality and style that will have gamers shouting, We Love Katamari!"

Namco did not give We Love Katamari an official release date, but it will likely ship late in 2005 when it comes exclusively to PS2.
