NeoGAF user, ekim, spotted that Bandai Namco has registered Amazing Katamari Damacy which could imply that a remake of the original could be on the way. You can check out the trademark for yourself over at EUIPO (European Union Intellectual Propery Office).

For those who though the franchise was too quirky, Katamari Damacy has players in the boots of an alien picking up stuff used to rebuilt stars, cosmos and constellations. How is this accomplished? By rolling around a giant ball.

Also interesting to note that the PS2 2004 original game was never released in Europe. If this rumors is indeed an HD port/remake of the original, it could give European gamers a chance to finally try this gem.

Thanks to IGN.
