Created by a two-person team, the ambitious game is coming in 2021



Stray is a beautiful new game headed to PlayStation 5. It puts players in the role of a clever cat, lost in a world where humanity has been wiped away, leaving nothing but robots behind. The game was announced Thursday during the Sony PlayStation 5 livestream event.
Developed by BlueTwelve, the game began as a two-person effort called HK Project in 2015. The game is being published by Annapurna Interactive.
Stray is a third-person cat adventure game set amidst the detailed neon-lit alleys of a decaying cybercity and the murky environments of its seedy underbelly,” Annapurna Interactive said in a news release. “Players will play as a stray cat, roaming surroundings high and low, defend against unforeseen threats and solve the mysteries of this unwelcoming place inhabited by nothing but unassuming droids and dangerous creatures. Lost, alone and separated from family, players must untangle an ancient mystery to escape a long-forgotten cybercity and find the way home.”












The lavish trailer shown during today’s livestream seems to be set in an Asian city where humans have gone extinct. Spray paint in an alleyway read “RIP Humans.” There are homeless robots sitting along the side of the street. Inside an old barbershop one robot is busy repairing another. In the final frame the cat is shown wearing a tiny backpack.
Stray will be released some time in 2021.

Yes, that's an asset streaming stutter. Poor PS4's 5400 rpm hard drive vs the Steam Deck's flash storgae/nvme ssd 🤷‍♂️ :LOL:

I wonder if the PS5 version also has a few streaming stutters. Looking forward to DF's comparison 🤜

But we don't know if the game was running from the SSD or not. PS4 being limited to 30fps while the Steam Deck can run higher makes it a clear winner for me. Pushing well above its weight for a handheld 🤷‍♂️

- All versions suffer from slight stuttering during the loading of some scenarios.
🤷‍♂️:ROFLMAO:

    Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming.

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

    "These changes are not a reflection of the creativity and skill of the talented individuals at these teams or the risks they took to try new things" ... seems to me that's exactly what it is

    They could've sold the studios instead of closing them, but the nazi bastards just didn't want competition down the road.

    So i just found out that f***ing s***bag Microsoft shut down Arkane Studio (makers of the brilliant Dishonored series) and Tango Gameworks (makers of the iconic The Evil Within series), among some other studios. I just want to say a giant F*** Y**! to Microsoft. THEY'VE F***ED UP BIG TIME this time.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
