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.

About

Soulcalibur: Lost Swords was a free-to-play fighting game distributed through PlayStation Network. The game is based on Soulcalibur V and uses the same weapon-based fighting system from previous games; however, several of the gameplay mechanics are altered, simplified or otherwise removed. Similar to other free-to-play titles like Tekken Revolution, microtransactions are offered, some of which remove the playtime limit of the game. The game is also periodically updated with new content, including new events, items, and characters.
