Never fear, GameCola Faithful: Atlus has heeded your cries. “Persona just isn’t weird enough anymore!,” you said. “Can you please make a game in which you grow a pair of goat horns and fight off mutant sheep in your boxer shorts??”
Consider your wish granted, because Atlus’s formerly Japan-only stairmaster sim Catherine is coming to the U.S. Check out the announcement trailer below:
Those other videogame websites have been having a nonstop hissy fit for the past six months about how this game OMG NEEDS to get a U.S. release, so perhaps my favorite part of this announcement is that they can finally SHUT UP ABOUT IT ALREADY and go back to making unboxing videos.
Discussion topic: Really, videogame industry? Mother 3 is too weird and Japanesey for American audiences, but this isn’t?
Next thing you know they’ll invent a game about Japanese monsters that you collect for the purpose of fighting each other…
Awesome, firstly, this game outsold Marvel vs. Capcom 3 in Japan. Secondly, within a week it recieved a patch to tune the difficult down from impossible. Thirdly, a massive chain of plot twists. I await eagerly for a Region Free US release or an EU release.
*difficulty! Onwards!
