Copycat captured our hearts when we played it late last year. Our Aleksandra highlighted in her review: “An experience for everyone, whether you love cats or not.” We also interviewed the developers last year, who confirmed the game was a labor of love, and recently learned it’s coming to consoles.
With over 2,000 positive Steam reviews and more than 50,000 copies sold, this charming narrative game arrives on Xbox Series X/S and PlayStation 5 later this month, on May 29. It introduces the unique “catventure” genre, exploring themes of love, identity, and loss from a cat’s perspective.
Guided by a documentary-style narrator, Dawn prowls through sunlit backyards, shadowy alleys, and national parks, navigating a three-act story that delves into the true meaning of “home.” The game’s vibrant visuals and intuitive cat-like controls—climbing trees, knocking over objects, and meowing at passersby—immerse you in Dawn’s world.
