Stray, the timed PlayStation console exclusive, has been rated for Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One in Europe.
As spotted by Twitter user ‘@MACOS380‘, the Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB) has just rated the third-person cat adventure. Aside from mentioning Xbox One and Xbox Series as platforms, no further details have been included in the rating. BlueTwelve Studio’s cat game was released as a timed console exclusive for PlayStation and PC back in July of last year. With the ERSB now rating the game, it’s possible that the title was timed exclusive for PlayStation for a one-year period. If this is the case, it’s likely that the title will soon be released for Xbox as well.
Upon release, the game quickly became one of the best-rated games of 2022 on Steam with impressive concurrent player numbers as well.
We reviewed Stray upon release and rated it with a solid 9, praising its visuals, platforming, puzzles, its richly-realized world, and compelling soundtrack. “Ultimately, while your mileage may vary, I most enjoyed Stray during its more relaxed adventure-game-style chapters that see you exploring a pair of bustling robot neighborhoods”, Chris Wray wrote in his review. “The puzzles in these sections follow a certain obscure old-school logic and the game doesn’t always provide you with a ton of explicit guidance, but you shouldn’t get too frustrated figuring things out, as these areas are relatively small. They’re also very fun to explore. The level of lavish detail found in this game’s world is kind of astounding. Everywhere you go is packed with minutia specific to this mechanized world and the particular robot characters that inhabit the apartment, store, bar, or area you’re exploring. Secrets can be found around every corner, some of which you can collect for the sake of unlocking achievements, some of which are just there for your edification.”
