CATAN – Console Edition is now Available for Pre-order on PlayStation and Xbox Consoles.
Pre-order Purchases Will Give Early Access to Players on February 23rd, With the Full Release Coming on February 28th.
Pre-orders of CATAN – Console Edition: Deluxe will give would-be Catanians a 10% discount as well as a custom Dice Skin, custom Hex Frame and access to five pre-set game board layouts from the previous real-world CATAN World Championship event, which took place on the island of Malta last November. These boards will be playable in both single and multiplayer game modes.
Five days of Early Access, available only with pre-orders on either Edition, will unlock from Thursday, February 23rd giving players a head start on implementing their game strategies or those new to the experience the chance to learn the ropes. A host of features are included relating to single-player, couch multiplayer, and online multi-player. Dynamic AI comes in the form of individual characters based on those within CATAN’s distinctive lore and each has its own gameplay strategies. Cross-play also features, bringing PlayStation and Xbox players together on the island of Catan.
Couch multiplayer is also available, with only one console required to play with up to four friends around the TV and the ability to track resources on a smartphone with CATAN Card Companion, even without the need to install an app.
Regardless of gameplay mode, players will become immersed as explorers on the island of Catan, with islanders populating hexes and working away to gather each of the five resources: brick, grain, ore, wool, and lumber. Ships float in the Harbors, smoke rises from the chimneys of Cities and the Robber are waiting to take resources away. Plus, there are plentiful sheep wandering round! Players can zoom in and see all the action up close, or play in the traditional ‘top down’ view for an overall look at the board.
