Indie gamers will soon be able to take on a furry and four-legged persona with Stray, BlueTwelve Studio and Annapurna Interactives upcoming adventure video game. This unique story explores what its like to be a stray cat living in a cyberpunk world. Stray has become one of the years highly-anticipated titles, and many fans cant wait to hear more about it. Heres everything we have for Stray so far, including a release date window, a game trailer, and more.

Annapurna Interactive announced Stray in June 2020 during PlayStations Future of Gaming showcase. As revealed in a PlayStation blog post at the time, developer BlueTwelve studios founders, Koola and Viv, started working on the game years ago. However, the game was known back then as HK_Project.

Stray gives players the role of a cat who gets separated from his family. In his quest to return home, he must travel through a dystopian-looking futuristic city inhabited by robots and drones. Some will help him along the way, but others arent so friendly.

In the blog post, Viv explained why they chose a cat as the protagonist.

Cats are always so playful, cute, and lovingly annoying that its an endless stream of gameplay ideas for us. It is also a very unique point of view for an adventure game, Viv explained. Exploring the strange world we are building feels really fresh when youre sneaking under a car or walking the rooftops with the inhabitants below unaware of your presence. Or if you want them to be aware, you can just meow endlessly to annoy them.

Stray does not yet have a specific release date. However, the studio assured via Twitter in July 2021 that it aimed for an early 2022 release.

As we dont want to compromise on quality, nor the teams well-being, we now aim for early 2022. Thank you for understanding, and we cant wait to show you more next year! the tweet read.

And as for what platforms fans can expect Stray to be on, it will be released on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and PC. Unfortunately, it looks like Nintendo Switch and Xbox fans wont get this one, at least at first. Its unclear if the game will only be a timed exclusive.

After a year of waiting, fans finally received the first look at Stray gameplay in a new trailer in 2021, as seen above. The game takes an open-world approach, allowing players to explore the highs (rooftops) and the lows (underground) of this unwelcoming city.

Gameplay will involve puzzle-solving and platforming, as well as some action. In some of the trailers scenes, the cat outruns deadly enemies and, later, finds a futuristic weapon to eliminate them. Stray seems to have a little bit of everything.
