From Press Release:
SANTA ANA, California, June 30, 2025 — Prepare to set sail on a fantastic maritime adventure when Nicalis releases Cats Away as a digital download for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation®5 and Steam on July 10, 2025.
In Cats Away, players manage the crew and resources of a sailing ship on an exciting and dangerous exploratory voyage. Steer the ship during combat, maneuvering into more advantageous positions and giving orders on the fly to counter enemy tactics.
Between battles, dock in faraway ports-of-call to upgrade weapons and equipment, meet new friends (and enemies), learn new skills and much more. Take on side missions to earn treasure, level-up the captains and the crew and open new routes to uncharted waters!
Developed by Studio Saizensen with Success Corp., Cats Away follows the adventures of three seafaring sisters named Kanna, Lilia and Alicia. Together with their faithful cat crewmates, they embark on a perilous maritime journey involving pirate guilds, a mysterious cat-hating syndicate, ancient magic spells and giant mutated monsters.
Cats Away features 60 different cat breeds with varying abilities—some are best at manning weapons, some excel at piloting remote units, others repair and maintain the ship or administer first aid. The three sisters have different strengths and weaknesses as well, so the commands that are available during battle will change depending on which one is currently acting as the ship’s captain.
Cats Away will be released as a digital download on the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5 and Steam platforms on July 10, 2025.
