We won't lie to you - we already have our own copy of Catherine. In a moment of weakness, we actually bought the US version due to a) there being no UK release date for it at the time and b) the Stray Sheep edition being such a brilliant package. Sure, it cost a bomb to import, but it was worth it... until now, anyway, since it turns out that not only is the UK version landing early next year, but it'll be coming in a special edition package of its own.
Also dubbed the Stray Sheep edition after the similarly-named bar from the game, the special edition comes with an exclusive poster print of Catherine herself, two drinks coasters themed after the Stray Sheep bar and a replica t-shirt modelled after one that Vincent (Catherine's anti-hero) wears. All this content, placed in the box alongside the game itself) comes packaged in a Stray Sheep pizza box, because... well, it just does.
Tempted? Then you'll be able to pick it up for just £54.99 - over the standard edition's £44.99 price - when Catherine finally hits UK shores in February next year. True, it's not quite as bizarre a package as the one that US fans got, but then let's be honest: who really wants a pillowcase printed with a buxom woman on it? Apart from us, that is.
And in case you still don't even know what Catherine is, check out the trailer below showing off the gameplay; it's like a survival horror version of Q-Bert, but with more men in boxer's shorts being chased by cannibalistic demon babies. Seriously.
