After changing its proposed release date from some time this month to some time next month, Atari has now stated that colourful Xbox 360 title Beautiful Katamari will indeed arrive at UK retail very shortly.

To be precise, February 29th is the day that ardent fans of the King of All Cosmos and his plucky son The Prince will be able to get their hands on Namco’s latest outing.

The only sad news is that gaming legend, and the designer of the original PS3 classic Keita Takahashi, was not involved in the production of this version. He’s currently working on a PSN outing named Nobi Nobi Boy.
