The 3D catalog: game boxes on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

The catalog in 3D

The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

How it feels

A fast and chaotic team shooter where players coordinate abilities and roles in colorful, objective-based battles.

What players say

Players are split on Paladins: they love the flexible card loadout system and fast gameplay, calling it the best hero shooter despite feeling Hi-Rez abandoned it. Some report a small but active community in EU/NA, while others mention server disconnects, crashes, and a toxic player base.
