Chorus are mysterious fish-shaped creatures roaming Redo. When a Ratatan sings to them and grants a Medama (eye), they transform into loyal Cobun warriors. Your Cobun inherit traits from their Ratatan master and follow rhythm commands into battle. Managing your Cobun count is crucial - losing too many means a weaker army for the boss fight ahead.
Each Ratatan wields a Melodium - a magical instrument that channels the power of song into battlefield commands. Beyond basic rhythm orders, the Melodium unleashes a unique Ratatan Skill: a powerful ability that can turn the tide of battle. Learning when to save your skill for a boss versus when to use it on a tough mob is a key strategic decision.
Team up with up to 3 friends online for chaotic multiplayer mayhem. When all players hit FEVER mode simultaneously, the combined power is absolutely devastating. Coordinate your rhythm, share Cobun, and watch the screen explode with over 100 characters battling at once. Communication is key - call out FEVER windows!
Yes! Ratatan is the spiritual successor to Patapon, developed by the original Patapon team at Ratata Arts. It carries forward the core rhythm-command gameplay but adds roguelike progression, 4-player co-op, and a new world to explore. If you loved Patapon, you'll feel right at home with Ratatan's beat-based army commands.
Ratatan's full release is scheduled for July 16, 2026 on PC (Steam), PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and Nintendo Switch 2. The game was in Steam Early Access since September 18, 2025. The full version will include additional worlds, characters, weapons, skills, and expanded endgame content.
Not at all! While a sense of rhythm helps, Ratatan is designed to be accessible. The beat indicators are clear, and you can learn the timing patterns relatively quickly. Start with the tutorial, practice the basic four-beat commands, and you'll get the hang of it. The game is more forgiving than it looks - even imperfect timing still moves your army, just less effectively.
Absolutely. The entire game is fully playable solo. Multiplayer is optional but adds a lot of fun, especially when coordinating FEVER modes. Solo players can still experience all content - you just won't get the combined FEVER bonuses that come from syncing with teammates.
Minimum: Windows 10 64-bit, Dual Core 2.4 GHz CPU, 8 GB RAM, GeForce GTX 950 / Radeon R7 360 / Intel HD Graphics 630, 10 GB storage.
Recommended: Windows 11 64-bit, Quad Core 2.4 GHz CPU, 16 GB RAM, GeForce RTX 2060 / Radeon RX 5600 XT / Intel Arc A580, 10 GB storage. Online co-op requires Open or Moderate NAT type.
FEVER mode activates when you maintain a perfect rhythm combo for a certain number of beats. Your Cobun start dancing, the music intensifies, and your attack power gets a massive boost. In multiplayer, if all players enter FEVER simultaneously, you trigger a combined FEVER that's even more powerful. The key is communication - call out when you're close to FEVER so teammates can sync up.
