Continuing today’s seemingly endless E3 media barrage, here are a selection of new screenshots from the recently confirmed Patapon 2. The screens highlight the game’s battle mode and four-player ad-hoc multiplayer aspect.

A direct sequel to the original rhythm-based platformer, Patapon 2 is slated for a Winter debut in Japan. Although the game was publicly unveiled at E3 today, a release date for English-speaking territories has yet to be officially announced.
