Katamari Damacy Rice Appears for 22nd Anniversary

Bandai Namco has revealed many new Katamari Damacy merchandise releases to celebrate the game series' 22nd anniversary. It also works with numerous companies, with one of them being Grapht, which is newly releasing Katamari Damacy-branded mouse pad and rice.

The new mouse pad features the key art of the inaugural PS2 game, and it is available at ¥1,980 (~$12.45). However, the rice is only available for a limited time. It is available in either a single package of ¥864 (~$5.44) or a set of five packs with a bonus sticker at ¥4,320 (~$27.20), but it is best consumed within a year from being polished, and it was made in the city of Natori in Japan's Miyagi prefecture in 2025.

The new Katamari Damacy mouse pad and rice are immediately available to order online via Grapht's web store. However, despite the website featuring a WorldShopping widget, none of its Katamari-themed items are available for formal orders outside Japan.

Grapht is not the only company releasing new Katamari Damacy merchandise for the series' 22nd anniversary. Bandai Namco also works with Kadokawa Game Linkage for a Where's Waldo-like book, Arma Bianca's Amnibus for assorted keychains, and Mitacle for block toys. Inside the company's own group, Bandai has also released new Narabundesu figures and mobile stickers.

The Katamari Damacy series has also received new games for recent platforms ahead of this anniversary. Once Upon A Katamari is available on PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch, Xbox Series X, and PC, while Katamari Damacy Rolling Live is accessible on iOS devices via Apple Arcade.
