According to investor reports from Namco's official website, Katamari Damacy II is slated to be released during FY 2005. Also, unlike other titles in the list, no "tenative" tag was placed next to the name, indicating a definite position from Namco's standpoint.
Yeah, I know about that article. I checked before I posted. And that one does not give any solid statements about the game or the release, it's mainly just speculation.
