Popular Post dermarx Posted December 19, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted December 19, 2017 (edited) Atlus announced a remaster of the 2011 released Catherine. It's coming to PS4 and PSVita. It follows the story of Vincent, a 32 year-old man who cheats on his fiancee Katherine with a woman named Catherine, and is desperately trying to survive while suffering from nightmares that come as a result of his actions.Catherine: Full Body will feature a “third Catherine” whose personality and aura seem to be quite different from the previous two, as well as new scenes with Katherine and Catherine. She look like: Atlus will also host an Niconico live stream on December 22 at 19:30 JST titled, “From a Traditional RPG to Full Body!? Studio Zero Broadcast 2017.” The broadcast will feature “deep discussion and audacious talk” between Atlus staff, as well as the worldwide trailer debut for Catherine: Full Body. Source Her name is Rin. Some more things were posted a few minutes ago: Here are the tidbits: Development is a collaborative effort between Atlus and Studio Zero. The third “Catherine” is named Rin (voiced by Aya Hirano). She is a pianist at Vincent’s regular bar, and has an exceedingly honest and gentle personality. Rin’s involvement in the story will introduce a new perspective to the other two “Catherines.” A large amount of new endings, episodes, anime movies, and sexy events are being added. The subtitle “Full Body” was chosen from the wine term, and exemplifies an even richer and somehow more erotic new Catherine. A wide range of difficulties and convenient systems are being prepared. There is a new mechanic where you move blocks when multiple are connected. There is also a new mode. There are online battles. There is cross-save support. Source http://catherinethegame.com/fullbody/home.html News posted regarding the protagonists, the story and the staff members working on the game; also screenshots: Spoiler ■ Juvenille Adult Horror! Atlus’ Controversial Title Evolves into a “Bigger Controversial Title”! Catherine, an action adventure game from Atlus released for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in 2011, was a major hit that received high praise, won many awards, and shipped one million units worldwide. The game, which is based on the theme of “juvenile adults,” attracted many users with its highly original story and game design that asks questions of players’ “basic knowledge” to their “view on life (ethics?)” through the romance of adults. Catherine supports not only drama, but also a complete level of puzzle action. While there were of course players in Japan, tournaments and the like were even held overseas that used the game’s competitive battle feature. It has been six years since Catherine was released. The voices longing for a remake or port have never ceased, and now “Atlus’ Legendary Controversial Title” has matured into a “Bigger” controversial title, which will appear on PlayStation 4 and PS Vita. ■ Seven Nights of Nightmares Return! The Love Triangle Matures into a Love Quadrangle!? “New episodes” that push forward the “Catherine-style path of righteousness” have been added. With three “Catherines” appearing, the love triangle around Vincent will mature into a love quadrangle. (Devolve?) The third “Catherine” will invite players to a new story that puts their values to the test. And of course, Atlus is not stopping at episodes for the new “Catherine.” Catherine and Katherine, the dual heroines from the original Catherine, will also have additional endings. All of the “Catherines” are even more aggressive, even more erotic, and even more stylish. All of you Vincents around the world better watch out! With other additions such as new anime movies and many new bold and sexy events, you can taste the full body of the new “Catherine” from head to toe. —New episodes have been added. —New characters will appear. —Super mature new developments for all Catherines. ■ This is the Definitive Edition of Catherine!! Good news for players who were not fond of the puzzle genre when the original version of Catherine was released. In Catherine: Full Body, functionality related to improving playability has been drastically enhanced to allow anyone to play Catherine until the end. Through groundbreaking systems unheard of in a puzzle action game, anyone will be able to enjoy the game from start to finish. For players who want to enjoy and master even deeper puzzle action, Catherine: Full Body also offers a new mode with bold arrangements in addition to the “Original Mode,” which includes the same puzzle stages from the original version of Catherine. And through convincing feedback, the two-times more delicious definitive edition of Catherine will also offer new experiences to fans of frequently dying in video games. And even to players who played the original version of Catherine, players who are good at puzzles and action, and players who are not good at puzzles. With drastically improved playability, Catherine: Full Body is the definitive edition of Catherine in every way possible. —Even players of the original version can experience puzzles anew through the new gameplay mode. —Busy players and story-only players, too, can enjoy the story without any stress. ■ Characters New Character: Rin (voiced by Aya Hirano)The pretty and mysterious third “Catherine” appears! A pianist recently hired by the bar Stray Sheep. She has an extremely straightforward and gentle personality. The occasional glimpse of her behavior gives off the impression she is considerably lacking in common sense. Other than her moniker, “Rin,” her age and real name are unknown, and her beautiful face and mysteriousness attracts the attention of those around her. (Rin, however, is unaware of this herself.) She supports Vincent, who is taunted by his nightmares, and becomes a healing presence that exemplifies new values. Vincent (voiced by Kouichi Yamadera)An uninspired bachelor and office worker forced into the gap between dreams and reality, and freedom and responsibility. The protagonist of the story. He is an uninspired bachelor and office worker who spends his days freewheeling and turning away from the realities of work, romance, and marriage that weighs on the minds of men in their 30s. Although his girlfriend Katherine is pushing him to get married, he does not want to abandon his desire to live a comfortable, single life. When he meets the mysterious beauty known as Catherine, he is drawn into a nightmare-esque world in both his dreams and reality. He works as a systems engineer. Katherine (voiced by Kotono Mitsuishi)Vincent’s old friend and girlfriend pushing him to get married. Vincent’s girlfriend. She works for a mid-size clothing company. She and Vincent were classmates, and began dating after their high school class reunion five years ago. A sensitive, tender woman and the type who devotes herself to her lover. She is considering marrying Vincent, and although he indirectly communicates his intention, she is becoming more and more annoyed by his indecisiveness. Catherine (voiced by Miyuki Sawashiro)A mysterious beauty who seduces Vincent. A mysterious beauty who appears before an alcohol-drinking Vincent one evening at the bar. She has the features of a young woman, and attractive proportions that can lead a man astray. She seduces Vincent with her devilish atmosphere, and spends the night with him. Her do-as-she-wants behavior will shake up everything in Vincent’s life. ■ Development Staff Creative Producer: Katsura Hashino (Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne, Catherine, Persona 3, Persona 4, Persona 5) Character and Art Design: Shigenori Soejima (Stella Deus: The Gate of Eternity, Catherine, Persona 3, Persona 4, Persona 5) Sound Composer: Shoji Meguro (Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Summoner: Raidou Kuzunoha series, Catherine, Persona 3, Persona 4, Persona 5) Game Direction: Kenichi Goto (Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Summoner: Raidou Kuzunoha series (battle planning), Persona 5 (chief battle planning), and more) Chief Graphic Design: Yasuhiro Akimoto (Catherine (main character modeling), Persona 5 (main character modeling), and more) Chief Programming: Yuujirou Kosaka (Persona 3 and Persona 4 (field programming), Persona 5 (chief programming)) Animation Production: Studio 4°C (The Animatrix, Tekkonkinkreet, and more) Edited December 27, 2017 by dermarx 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LunchCannon54 Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 For fuck sake, they're doing the whole Marie thing again, aren't they? I wonder if they'll even be able to get back the full English voice cast again considering a couple of them are too good for anime now, apparently.

Super-Fly Spider-Guy Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 God I was so hopeful for a sequel just then, but I'll take a portable version any day. Could use something kick ass for the Vita anyway, Switch is literally feeding the Vita dust. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Venocide Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 (edited) A third Catherine? Okay, I'm definitely picking this up. I also love the fact that a Vita version is coming out. There's still life in the old girl! No Xbox release this time it seems. Edited December 19, 2017 by Venocide Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valyrious Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 Still have yet to play it, but definitely won't be passing on this version. Very happy that the rumours turned out to be true. Now let's hope the Demon's Souls remaster rumours are also true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raidou Kuzunoha XIV Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 Meh, was hoping for a sequel, rather than another Persona 4 Golden situation. I may get it depending on how significant the new content/character is, but yet another remaster/re-release of a not very old game to current gen doesn't really interest me too much.

fantrig99 Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 (edited) Originally thought Atlus was planning to announce a sequel though a remaster to the first game is still good. Wondering if the trophy list will be the same as the first and the randomization of the Babel stages will be the challenging parts of the platinum once again. The availability of a Vita version to this game is also a plus. Edited December 19, 2017 by fantrig99 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Undead Wolf Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 I think calling it a remaster is doing the game a disservice. I mean I wouldn't call Persona 4 Golden a remaster because of all the new features and content, so the same goes for this game. But anyway, I freakin' LOVED the original Catherine - got the platinum in it twice! It goes without saying that I'm super excited for this! It's really cool that they're bringing the game out on Vita. I've always said the game would be perfect for everyone's favourite handheld. I suspect this version won't make it over to the west, but if not, I may end up importing it. Rin is such a cutie. I think she's gonna be my new favourite! Online battles sounds cool - I'd like to test my skilzz against other people. I just hope they don't put in any online trophies. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
