Cult game “Katamari Damacy” gets its very first collaboration cafe
A limited-time collaboration cafe dedicated to the action-puzzle game Katamari Damacy is set to open this summer in Tokyo.
This event will be the first full-scale cafe collaboration for the game, which was originally developed by Namco and has since become a cult classic.
Katamari Damacy is known for its simple yet deep gameplay, where players control a tiny Prince who rolls a magical, adhesive ball called a “katamari.”
The objective is to roll up everyday objects, from thumbtacks to buildings, to make the katamari grow ever larger and recreate stars and constellations accidentally destroyed by the eccentric King of All Cosmos.
The game is also celebrated for its unique, colorful art style and its eclectic and memorable soundtrack.
The new collaboration cafe will feature a menu with dishes inspired by the game’s quirky universe.
Original menu items will be themed around the Prince, the memorable “Ushikuma” (Cow-Bear) stage, and the many cute “Mates,” or Cousins, that can be found throughout the game.
A special menu item will also be served in a replica of “Miso’s Miso Bowl,” a nod to the fan-favorite Cousin whose head is shaped like a bowl of miso soup.
For each menu item ordered customers will receive one event exclusive coaster, selected at random from 8 designs.
An attached goods shop will sell new and exclusive merchandise created for the collaboration, as well as other officially licensed products.
The new merchandise lineup includes:
- Holo-sticker with Wafer Collectible Box (30 varieties total, includes a digital photo frame)
- Trading Acrylic Mascot Keyholders (8 varieties total)
- Miso’s Miso Bowl
- Pocket Thermos Bottle
- King of All Cosmos Rainbow Konpeito Candy
- Sacoche Bags (4 varieties)
The “Katamari Damacy Collaboration Cafe” is scheduled to open on Friday, the 25th of July, and will run until Tuesday, the 2nd of September at TOKYO PARADE goods&cafe in Shibuya PARCO.
Reservations can be made online in advance via the official website.
