Catherine, the first PlayStation 3/Xbox 360 game from Atlus' Persona team, is less than two months away from its Japanese release but it seems many people still don't know what it is. In an official blog post this week, director Katsura Hashino revealed that a demo is in the works to address just that.
Hashino said that while "many people are excited" about Catherine, he noted that there was a pattern of confusion in the feedback he has received. Examples he offered included concerns like "If it's sexual, I can't buy it" and direct questions like "I'm gonna buy this, but what kind of game is it?" He did not say when the demo might be ready, but the release date for Catherine is February 17th.
To date the marketing material has focused entirely on Catherine's story and voice cast but not the gameplay. Recent updates to the official site have shown "action" sequences where Vincent must climb to escape from his nightmares. There also appear to be a lot of sheep involved.
