Little Kitty Big City trailers

The original reveal trailer shows a cute, black cat with bright green eyes roaming the streets of a busy city. Though the objective is to get home, there are some distractions along the way as the kitty dives into crates, shimmies through a hole in the wall, and knocks potted plants off a wall.

We get a little more gameplay insight from the release date trailer, which goes through a comical checklist while showing gameplay footage. Does curiosity kill the cat? No, but it certainly seems to get them into trouble. Does the cat have an appreciative audience? Yes, and we certainly are, but we’re not sure we can say the same about the humans this cheeky cat comes into contact with in-game.

The trailer shows more customization options for our kitty, as well as various mechanics, such as tripping people over, playing with toilet roll, and other typical cat adventures, all of which keep our friend busy on their way home.
