Those anxious for the release of Atlus’ newest title Catherine might be a little surprised after watching the video beyond the jump.
Despite the fact that the story stems from the world of Persona, Catherine will feature a different type of gameplay. Vincent (the protagonist in the story) will be engaged in a series of puzzle platforming activities as he wades through his nightmares filled with sheep, women and bizarre environments.
Surprised? It may not be an RPG, but I’m still excited. It’s refreshing that Atlus decided to take a different approach in presenting the game as such, rather than it becoming a derivative of their previous titles.
The game comes out this coming February 17th in Japan for those of you who want to partake on Vincent’s spiral into madness. That leaves you roughly a month to study Japanese, or to find someone who can speak the language and play it with you.
