TGS has brought us the second trailer for upcoming Atlus game, Catherine. In it, we get more details of the delightfully confusing plot of our protagonist Vincent, his girlfriend Katherine with a K, and the mysterious Catherine with a C, who he’s sleeping with. The game’s plot follows our misfortunate hero who, after meeting with the beautiful Catherine, ends up having nightmares about climbing an endless staircase. The random cuts and lack of understanding of Japanese makes it difficult to understand all of what’s happening, but I can share that girlfriend Katherine is making a transition to baby momma Katherine. I somehow think Katherine won’t be too happy when she finds out that Vincent has been sleeping with Catherine, though from the look on his face, he seems to be shocked as well. Catherine has been described as having “shockingly adult [sexual] scenes,” something the Shin Megami Tensei games have avoided despite their maturity.

Besides the love triangle and mature situations, Catherine will have its fair share of Persona-style weirdness. Dream demons, blood everywhere, lots of screaming, the works. Besides the strange imagery, Atlus has kept relatively quiet on the gameplay mechanics and supernatural plot aspects of the game. Catherine is the first High Definition game from the Persona team and is coming out this Winter in Japan.
