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 frantic, co-op horror shooter where you fight through a hellish nightmare with intense gunplay and psychic powers.

What players say

Players say this is the weakest in the series, trading horror for co-op action that resembles Call of Duty. The atmosphere is gone, the story disappoints, and the multiplayer barely works. Co-op with Fettel's psychic powers is fun, but the game feels like a budget shooter.
