PQube Games’ Cat Quest II, the sequel to – yes, you guessed it – Cat Quest, will be launching on PC via Steam on 24th September. A version for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One will follow a little later in the Autumn of this year.
Here’s a little more on the game.
Cat Quest II is a 2D open-world action-RPG set in a fantasy realm of cats and dogs. Under threat from a continuing war between the cats of Felingard and the advancing dogs of the Lupus Empire, Cat Quest II tells the tail of two kings, brought together against their will, on a journey of paw-some discovery to reclaim their thrones.
Play as both a cat and dog as you explore their kingdoms solo or with a friend! Quest in a world filled with magic, curious monsters, and go on a catventure like never before! Expanding on the original with more explosive spells, new weapon options, and local co-op – Cat Quest II improves on all aspects of the universally adored indie sensation
We liked the first game and it scored a decent 7/10 on our review.
Cat Quest is definitely good fun for a few hours and can be quite humorous, but a lack of depth to the basic gameplay loop means it gets repetitive and it’s easy to lose interest. Once you reach that point, tolerance for cat puns wears thin and the bright, cheerful aesthetic, while nicely realised and attractive enough, isn’t enough to keep people coming back. The only thing left to look forward to is the quirky side quests, which can be written well enough but again, are based around cat puns.
