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 stylish, fast-paced action game with fluid combat and a visceral, darkly comic edge.

What players say

The combat is fluid and satisfying, with a weapon-switching system that is easy to learn, but the story and characters divide players. Some find it the worst in the series, others praise its style and music, while the platforming and color-coded enemy weaknesses get mixed reactions.
