So, a good few months back, there was a rumour going around that claimed Atlus was planning on producing a PlayStation 4 port of cult PlayStation 3 puzzle title Catherine. That rumour faded pretty quickly, but now new whispers are adding weight to it all over again.
Blogger Ryokutya2089, who's best known for leaking information from the latest issues of Japanese publications Weekly Famitsu and Dengeki, reports that Atlus is currently working on a "followup" to a "popular" PS3 game -- as translated by Gematsu. Given the credibility of the source, we're inclined to believe that there's something to this.
What's the game in question, then? Well, Ryokutya2089 mentions that it was apparently rumoured "several months ago" leading just about everyone to believe that this has something to do with the Catherine remaster rumour. However, Ryokutya2089 doesn't specifically state whether this is a remaster or not, prompting speculation that it could be some sort of sequel. That said, he "heard the title does not have a number", and is leaning towards it being an "all-included remaster".
Perhaps the most important detail, though, is that Atlus supposedly plans on announcing what this is before the end of 2017. If that's the case then we'll have official confirmation in the very near future.
Would you take a Catherine remaster on PS4? How about a potential sequel? Rotate some cubes in the comments section below.

Had to play this on easy difficulty, great game though, very entertaining.
Quite a freaky game at times but hugely creative.
I didn't like that game at all.
They need to bring back Dokapon Kingdom.
I tried to play Catherine back on PS3 but really didn't get on with the puzzles. Interesting rumour, anyway, hopefully we'll hear more on it soon.
This game is really amazing, I would welcome a port on PS4, even better if it's a sequel.
Chalk me down as another one who thought this was a really imaginative game that just didn't really come together.
Ahhh Catherine Game had a awesome good story tbh if you know what the game was trying to tell you.
I'd love a sequel, but a remaster would be just as welcome. Batsh*t crazy but also pretty tight in its execution, I thought.
Follow up to a popular ps3 game...
Persona 6 confirmed.
I wouldn't care about a remaster, but I'd be very excited for a sequel.
@YummyHappyPills PS4 has no games. It'll do fine.
@AnimeGamerFan I was in fact kidding 😂
Just give us P3 and P4 ports for goodness sake.
I'd love a port of Catherine. Never got around to it last gen.
LOVED catherine. but i do not want or need a port. hoping it is a sequel or at the very least a port with LOTS of new content and improvements.
I would welcome a port considering I didn't have a PS3 to play this when it first came out.
I liked the story but really hated the puzzles, I tend to loathe anything timed, so I don't think I made it very far. Too bad because I love bizarre and this game had a ton of it.
I have a copy but no PS3 so I would readily welcome a remaster for PS4!!! I've played it a bit of it and love it! I'm a big ATLUS fan!
I would like both a remake and a sequel. I loved Catherine, it had a good story, the puzzles were hard, but very rewarding after completing a level.
@Octane please tell me that was sarcasm because if not oh boy you're delusional
I love Catherine . Can't wait to see if that's true or not
I mean if that's true...OMG!!! Can't wait . I have it on ps3 but playing it by ps4 is something else.
@dark_knightmare2 I'm serious.
@Octane well then you need to go see a doctor something's wrong with you if you say that kind of thing with a straight face because reality is completely the opposite of the fantasy you must be living
@ShogunRok It's a remake and it's coming to PS4 and Vita.
