It's a date
A playable demo for Catherine: Full Body has arrived on the PlayStation Store ahead of the game's 3rd September release date here in the West.

News Catherine: Full Body Is Packing Much More Than Any of Us Bargained On
Persona 5 crossover DLC revealed
Catherine: Full Body is shaping up to be quite the surprise package – in more ways than one.

News Will Sony Censor Catherine: Full Body? Developer Can't Give a Definitive Answer
No "mysterious lights", at least
If you're big into risque video game content then you may not want to hear this, but Catherine: Full Body developer Atlus -- more specifically its own Studio Zero -- has seemingly shied away from giving a definitive answer on whether or not the upcoming title will be censored under Sony's new sexual content policy...
News Catherine: Full Body's In-Game 'Nero Glasses' Let You See Through Characters' Clothes
What are you staring at?
Atlus is really putting some extra effort into Catherine: Fully Body, isn't it? New to this enhanced remaster are what the game calls the "Nero Glasses".

News Here's Your First Look at Persona 5 Protagonist Joker in Catherine
No Joker
It’s the crossover event of the century – well, no, it’s not really, but it’s still pretty neat. Persona 5 protagonist Joker will be playable in remaster-cum-remake Catherine: Fully Body, assuming you pre-order and pick up a first-print copy in Japan.

Western release window announced
Catherine: Full Body will launch on PlayStation 4 in 2019 here in the West, Atlus has confirmed via a new E3 trailer.

Announced in time for Xmas
A very quick pre-Christmas confirmation from the fine folks at Atlus: remaster Catherine: Full Body will release on Western shores.

News Catherine Remaster Is Real on PS4, Vita, Has New Endings, Scenes, Gameplay Options
Love definitely isn't over
The rumours were right: Catherine remastered for PlayStation 4 is real -- except it's also heading to Vita. We didn't see that one coming. This doesn't appear to be a simple remaster, either -- this sounds more like an enhanced version of the PlayStation 3 cult hit in every sense of the word. First off, it's called...

News Catherine Sold 200,000 Copies In Its First Week
Bloody nora
When Atlus said it had enjoyed its best launch ever with Catherine, we weren't expecting numbers anywhere near the 200,000 mark. But that's exactly what Catherine pulled off in its first week on sale, which is a resounding success for such an unusual title, and a big "oorah" for folks that are getting a bit bored of Shooty...
News Catherine Breaks Sales Records For Atlus USA
Ever since the first images of Catherine leaked out of Japanese gaming bible Famitsu, there's been an intrigue surrounding the odd-ball puzzle title
It's strange to us that so many people latched onto the game while ignoring other intriguing Japanese titles such as Shadows Of The Damned, but the video game market continues to prove its...

News Atlus On Catherine In Europe: We Need A Partner
Promising looking puzzle-platformer-cross-dating-simulation, Catherine, does not yet have a European release date

News Here's Everything That's Inside Catherine's Ostentatious Collector's Edition

First Impressions Catherine on PlayStation 3 Demo
Video games can be quite immature
Even when they come attached with mature age ratings, the content inside can often feel like the opposite. Enormous guns, vats of gore and over-sized breasts are not necessarily indicative of what it means to be mature, in fact they are the antithesis. Few games capture the essence of adulthood. For all its faults,...

News As Shakespeare Famously Wrote: Catherine Or Katherine?
Personally we'd rather be with a girl called Katherine
Nothing against the Catherines of the world, but there's something a bit more exotic about the way Katherine looks on paper, isn't there? It stands out on the page like a misspelled word. It just looks better. Plus you can call her "Kay". And "Kay" sounds better than...
News Catherine Out July 26th In North America, Demo On The Way

The publisher has also confirmed that there will be an English language demo on the PlayStation Store. There's still no hard details on a European release. Time to get your import on?
News Do You Ever Want To Get Married?
That's the question posed by the latest trailer of Catherine, which features the first ever footage of the puzzle-platformer in English
In truth, the trailer's a little bit goofy, with numerous "fans" discussing whether they want to get married. We quite like the guy that implies getting married would ruin his life. We also like the fat...
News Catherine Screens Aren't Always The Most Exciting, Are They?
While we continue to be of the opinion that Catherine looks properly amazing, we're just not convinced screenshots do it the greatest of justice
Looking at two similarly awkward looking characters talking about marriage doesn't exactly instill us with enthusiasm. But hey, at least there's cigarettes and mustard in this screenshot.</em>

The news comes via the game's official website, which can be found through here. There's no word of a European release, but with the PlayStation 3 region-free, importing the game won't be a big deal. It's...
News GDC 2011: Catherine Localisation Announcement Due Tomorrow
Despite the publisher denying that Catherine would be localised for a Western release, all signs appear to be pointing in the opposite direction

News ... And The Catherine Demo Is Back On The PlayStation Store
The saga of Atlus' Catherine demo is almost as bemusing as the game itself

News Atlus Pulls The Plug On Catherine's PS3 Demo
Atlus has removed the PlayStation 3's Japanese demo of Catherine, stating the teaser was oddly in "limited quantities"
We're assuming this has more to do with the level of international interest more than anything else. With the PlayStation 3 making it so easy to create regional accounts, we're assuming the Catherine demo got slaughtered with...

News Atlus To Provide Demo For The Bizarre Looking Catherine
We know it's got sheep people, bimbos and dead bodies, but to be honest we don't know much else about Catherine, the upcoming PlayStation 3 title from Atlus
With the game roughly a month away from its Japanese launch, perhaps it's time we learned a thing or two about the NSFW title. Good news. The game's director, Katsura Hashino, has confirmed that...
News Gah, Catherine Looks So Bloody Amazing... We Want It Now Please
To be honest, we haven't got a clue what's going on in this latest Catherine trailer
Once again there are sheep people, toilets and giant contraptions. It's sounds like Catherine's going to be a bit psychological. From what we can understand about the game, the story revolves around the protagonist's involvement with two characters — Catherine and...
News Catherine Delayed Into The New Year In Japan
Catherine was set to hit Japan before Christmas, but Atlus has just announced that the bizarre title is set to be delayed until February 17th
