Catherine Classic is a singleplayer and multiplayer bird's-eye view platform and puzzle game.
Catherine, developed by P-Studio with Atlus serving as publisher, was first released for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 on February 17, 2011.
The game was later ported to PC by The Eccentric Ape and released via Steam on January 10, 2019 under the Catherine Classic title. The PC port was published by Sega.
Because the PC port is based on the original PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 game, it does not feature any additional content from the subsequent updated re-release Catherine: Full Body which was developed by Atlus' other studio Studio Zero.
The port suffers from slightly lower quality FMVs and Audio due to the compression [1]. See High Quality BGM Mod to improve the audio quality of the music.
