While cats aren’t known as water lovers, that’s not stopping Cat Quest 3 from taking on the high seas. Developer The Gentlebros announced today at the Nintendo Indie World Showcase that the third entry in the action-RPG series will launch August 8–International Cats Day.
In addition, Cat Quest 3 is getting a free demo later today on Nintendo Switch. It should give players a taste of what sailing in the Purribean is like for the game. The small slice of the full game will focus on the opening areas of the experience and first encounters with some of the characters. But be on the lookout for Pi-rats, who also occupy the seas in the sequel. The Gentlebros also revealed that preorders will go live today, too.
