A new trailer for the hotly anticipated Catherine has been posted, this one centering on main character Vincent’s struggles to choose between Katherine (his current girlfriend in the game) and Catherine (his one night stand) with rather hilarious results. The game will be released on July 26th for the PS3 and Xbox 360 with a pre-order only “Love is Over” edition and a bonus soundtrack CD for regular edition and limited edition pre-orders.

Plot
In the neighborhood in which Vincent lives, there have recently been a number of bizarre incidents in which people die in their sleep, with a look of anguish upon their faces. Strangely enough, all of the victims are young men. The story quickly spreads throughout the media, attracting widespread attention and theories as to the cause of death. A strange rumor begins to spread that if a person dreams of falling, if they don’t wake up they will soon become unable to wake at all, and die.

Vincent is at a bar contemplating marriage to Katherine, his lover of five years, who is pressuring him to get married, when he meets a beautiful and mysterious woman named Catherine. Although there are many vacant seats, she sits next to Vincent and, well-proportioned and pretty, she is exactly his type. The two end up spending the night together at Vincent’s house.

After meeting the woman, Vincent begins to have nightmares every single night, which he believes may be related to the rumors. In these dreams, he, and several other men who appear to him as sheep, must escape from various horrors trying to kill him, for if he dies in his dream, he will die in reality. As dreams and reality begin to blend together, Vincent must not only fight to survive, but he must choose between Katherine and Catherine.
