Katherine, from the PS3 game Catherine.

Catherine Is Now Available on Sony’s PlayStation Now Service

Sony has recently announced 25 games that will be joining the PlayStation Now service, and the list includes the puzzle platform game Catherine from Atlus. Catherine is a rather unique game, and was one of the rare games that was oriented towards adults not just because of its (ultimately tame) suggestive themes. but rather its characters and setting. The game was arguably somewhat of a social experiment, exploring where the players stands on topics regarding marriage and commitment, which are rarely explored in video games. If you haven’t played the game yet, I recommend giving it a try if you get the chance.

If you’re wondering what PlayStation Now actually is, it’s comparable to streaming services like Netflix, but for PS3 games. Instead of using a local console, the actual game is being processed on a remote server. All you need is a fast Internet connection, a Dualshock controller, and a device compatible with the service. Subscribing to PlayStation Now, or paying on a per-game basis, allows you to stream PS3 games to various devices, including the PlayStation Vita, PlayStation TV, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Windows PC, and Samsung and Sony TVs. Aside from Catherine from Atlus, a number of SEGA games are also available on the service. We compiled the list of games for the US here:

  • Nights Into Dreams
  • Crazy Taxi
  • Sonic CD
