You Determine Vincent’s Fate In Catherine

Using the trailer as my main piece of evidence:

All written language in the game, with the sole exception of in the conveyor belt sushi restaurant, is in English.

The outside architecture looks like that of a major city on the east coast of the US. There are indeed conveyor belt sushi restaurant’s in the US.

The cops at the crime scene are all dressed like American police and the police vehicle is very American in nature.

Again with language, the newscast covering the death, text-wise, is completely in English. I’ve never seen a Japanese news broadcast with zero Japanese language text in it, as well as the presentation of the newscast being very western.

Vincent’s apartment looks very much like the small apartments found in major US cities on the east coast.

Of course this is all conjecture, but based on all the evidence in the trailer I’d say this takes place on the east coast of America in a large city like New York or possibly Chicago. There is nothing in the trailer that screams to me “this takes place in Japan.”

And yes, while even in games that take place in Japan have plenty of English all over, I’ve never seen one where there was absolutely no Japanese (again, with the exception of the Japanese restaurant).

As far as Vincent being in P3P, that was just a little easter egg. Same thing with the Teddie doll being inside the bar as well.
