It seems that the recently-released Stray is as popular with cats as it is their owners, as evidenced by a wave of cute videos players are sharing online. Developer BlueTwelve Studio took much of the gaming world by surprise when it announced Stray during the unveiling of the PS5 in 2020, as this feline-centric adventure/platforming title looked nothing like what was being shown off for the then-upcoming console at the time. In Stray, players take control of a lost cat wandering the streets of a dystopian cyberpunk city in search of a home, using its natural agility and a helpful drone companion to navigate the dark environment and avoid robot patrols.
In addition to featuring impressive graphics and a novel approach to platforming and open-world transversal, Stray has naturally gained much praise for its cute feline protagonist. Players can perform all kinds of adorable actions like taking naps in the laps of robots, playing with cardboard boxes that litter the alleyways of the city, and even letting out a cute little meow or two — provided by Stray voice actress and equally precious real-world cat Lala. Developer BlueTwelve Studio has seemingly spared no expense in recreating the look and behavior of cats in Stray, and it might come as no surprise that actual felines enjoy watching the game in action as much as their owners enjoy playing it.
