Catherine Officially Confirmed For Summer 2011

By Ishaan . March 1, 2011 . 12:22am

It looks as though our friend at EB Games and the Gamestop listing were both correct: Catherine is officially confirmed for a summer release. Here’s the official site for the game, although it isn’t fully up at the time of this post.

 

While Atlus USA haven’t provided a date for the game, EB/Gamestop listed it for July 26th release, which is also the date that Amazon have listed on their page.

    Now we just have to worry about what if anything gets changed/censored.

    • amagidyne

      I haven’t played it, but it’s only got a C from CERO. Can’t be *that* explicit, can it?

      • gatotsu911

        This. I’m kinda tickled by all these people being all like “oooooooh, it’s so ADULT, will those dumb censorship-loving Americans allow it?”, when in reality it’s almost certainly not that graphic. I doubt it even has actual nudity.

          Spoiler: There’s not.

          It’s probably LESS risque than Dragon Age, Mass Effect and Heavy Rain combined, yet I’m sure hypocritical anti Japan game haters and overly religious soccer moms will make a stink about it simply because it’s an import

      Persona 3 and 4 have way more explicit content.

  • Barrit

    I’d totally pre-order right now, but I know there is bound to be a special edition. So I’ll just hold off until then :)

  • amagidyne

    Hell yeah.

    Faith restored.

  • Darkrise

    … *Looks around to see if anyone is around*
    AAAAAH!!!!!!!! OMG! Does this year get any better!? I want both covers!!!!

  • http://twitter.com/Linka13 Linka

    Hahah, this is cool! I’m looking forward to it, especially with it’s release point. Gives me enough time to get the money for it!

    rar, approved >ww<' it's Atlus, it's one of there biggest games in years, I couldn't see them not bringing it over.

    Woke up, saw this and went back to sleep. Woke up again and it was still there. So, it wasn’t just a dream?

      Dream of Butterfly or is Life a Dream. Don’t want to wake up because I’m happier here…

      I found it only appropriate to reference PERSONA :)

  • masuto

    Atlus is a freakin liar. That’s called unprofessional bad PR. Publicly lying to people that you’re not gonna publish Catherine and then announce that you will isn’t good PR.

    • http://tristsantithesis.tumblr.com/ Tsunayoshi Sawada

      Atlus went public? Isnt it the site itself the one responsible, Im quite sure other sights have asked Atlus about the game before hand and decided that the obvious news wasnt noteworthy. What did they lie about? They didnt ever say that they were not going to publish it, youre just putting words in their mouth.

  • http://www.samuraiprincess.com Mr Fwibbles

    Can anyone tell me which console this game was originally developed for, and which one it was ported to? Since I own both systems I’d rather check out the best version of the game.

    • http://tristsantithesis.tumblr.com/ Tsunayoshi Sawada

      I thought tech analysis stated PS3 versions performs slightly better than the x360 version.

      • malek86

        Apparently the anime parts look better on PS3 (I guess they had more space for cutscenes), while the gameplay looks slightly more refined on 360, probably due to AA2X instead of QAA.

        I guess there isn’t much of a difference: in any case, I would just go for joypad preference, because that’s gonna affect you a lot more than just some jaggies.

    • http://honorless.net honorless

      In-game shots are largely the same, but the PS3 version has better compression during animated cutscenes.

      Check out http://www.andriasang.com/e/blog/2011/01/30/catherine_vs_catherine/ for a comparison. In particular, look at the purple orb shot.

  • lurkingsalt

    Now the wait begins. Can’t say I’m surprised but never the less I’m glad.

    Have to stop watching the live streams of the JP release now , I have spoiled enough of the game as it is.

    Are they gonna keep the Japanese rap song?

    • Yusaku_Matsuda70s

      It’s on the English site, so I’d presume so.

      • Guest

        What’s the lyrics to it? I only know the first three words: “One Two Three”

        • Yusaku_Matsuda70s

          I can’t quite hear it clearly either. Think it’s a mix of Japanese and English.

        • amagidyne

          The one from the PV? “Yo”. Repeat ad nauseam.

        • http://www.facebook.com/people/Aunna-Terrell/100001267508146 Aunna Terrell

          The song is called “Yo” and it’s a mix of Japanese and English. You can see from the scan of the book from the 34 track OST.

      Atlus didn’t change any of the P3 & P4 songs.. so it’ll stay most likely.

    i hope they make the game more easy on easy mode because on Japanese is too hard i lost all my 30 continues in one stage on easy mode so the no easy mode on the game the think say easy mode is fake lol

    I don’t even know what to say.
    I’m just….so….so happy ; A ; AHHHHHH. YESSSSSS.

  • ToSeektheChosen

    gamestop was right!

  • DlanorKnox

    Oh man! So tempted to pre-order this on Amazon now, but I guess I should wait and see what kind of collector’s edition gets released. You’re awesome, Atlus! This summer is going to rock!

  • kurosan9712

    Oh well, I already have the jap version, I know japanese, I’ve beaten the game. No need for and english release.
    Besides, I’m not ready to listen to awful english dub.

    Two days without going online and I see this! XD I knew you do Atlus. Hoorah for the believers. >w<
