Sounds like an amazing plot. I'm probably gonna get this game.

Fuck yes! Giant Bomb have a quick look of the Japanese only demo

I want it.

I played the demo today and it it's really good! I would just like to know how Atlus will mix all of those gaming elements together. I mean the puzzle levels, the money you get, the karma level, choices about sending mail, etc.

Looks like there is a significant multiplayer aspect to Catherine as well

If you're hoping to get your twitching fingers on Atlus' sexy "Q*Bert with tits" horror puzzler Catherine, then prepare for some bad news. Atlus has confessed that it currently has no intention of bringing the game Westward.

Atlus' US branch was quite frank with its statement: “Catherine is a Japan-only game and there are no plans for a NA release at this time. Sorry about that!”

So that's that. Bear in mind, of course, that a lack of planning does not mean the game will never get localized. Currently, the game is doing quite well in Japan, so that's at least a sign that the property is making some cash. Whether that cash will be spent on giving Catherine to the round-eyes, who knows?

As of right now, don't hold your breath, but don't kill yourself out of depression either. I'd be surprised if this didn't make it here eventually, given Atlus' history.

Well from what I hear, there's a lot of dialogue in that game so it may even take it's time for localisation, voice work etc. At that I'd suspect it wouldn't even be released this year if that were the case. I think it'll arrive eventually, just not soon.

...well fuck.

Hahaha, I read the thread title and I thought Tuffty must have made it. I was right. Giantbomb!

Tuffty · « **Reply #29 on:** February 26, 2011, 11:12:02 PM »

^ Actually it's more of a Persona Team thing if anything but I won't deny that GB made Persona 4 more awesome than before.

Those subscribed to Atlus USA's newsletter was surprised and a little encouraged to see this appear in today's email:

Sounds like an announcement coming soon if you ask me!

Nice!

Although, no word of a European release yet. Here's the announcement trailer:

I wonder if Fox News is gonna go ballistic about this game

And if IGN Host, Jessica Chobot, needed to be more awesome:

PERVERTS UNITE! I'll be playing the crap out of this sheep-loving, Japanese sexshay-time game when it hits US shores

It appears they have cast Troy Baker (Snow from FFXIII, Kanji from Persona 4) has been cast to do English VO for Vincent. Awesome! I think he's a really good VO actor. I'd put money down on Catherine being done by Laura Bailey (Serah from FFXIII, Rise from Persona 4). If you need help placing voices to the characters:

winner · « **Reply #33 on:** March 04, 2011, 03:06:42 AM »

Catherine: Do you love me?

Katherine: Who The Hell is Her?!!!

Vincent: ummm... Steelguard!~

sorry...

Tuffty · « **Reply #34 on:** March 10, 2011, 07:49:36 AM »

Laura Bailey has indeed confirmed she will do the voice of Catherine.

Tuffty · « **Reply #35 on:** May 03, 2011, 12:40:17 PM »

The special edition version for Catherine looks crazy!!

It's for both platforms, and to confirm it has, along with the game itself:

T-Shirt
Boxer shorts
Pillowcase
Pizza Box style packaging

It's priced at the moment for $79.99, $20 more than the standard copy. But then it doesn't have underwear to go with it now does it? I should note, that anyone who pre-orders it before it's release date (July 26 in America) is subject to getting an art book and the soundtrack CD, regardless of which version you buy.

coachie · « **Reply #36 on:** May 05, 2011, 12:25:03 PM »

Fuck, if only we knew if it's region free for Xbox.

Tuffty · « **Reply #37 on:** May 05, 2011, 01:33:10 PM »

Indeed. With PS3 it is region free so any European hipsters here can import it form the US ok. Just not us 360 hipsters

I'll admit that it does looking interesting and I'd be up for playing as a guy with ram horns, but I'm not terribly confident in the replay value. Looking at it, it reminds me a lot of Little Big Planet in the gameplay, just with less customisability and more adult concepts. The way I was reading the descriptions at first in this thread made the game sound scary, but watching the gameplay video, it looks almost comical in a good way. It's like "run away from all this terrifying shit, but do it in an amusing style"

As two others have already said, I know I'd die a lot in this game.

Tuffty · « **Reply #39 on:** May 14, 2011, 05:00:08 PM »

Some previews on how the English dub for the game will sound like. Sounds great so far!
