Some things are just meant to be. Romeo and Juliet (RIP), white chocolate and raspberry, Astarion and my Baldur’s Gate 3 character. The most perfect combination of all, however, is of course cats and pirates – and that’s what new action RPG Cat Quest 3 is all about. With rave reviews and an average Metacritic score of 82% on PC, this sequel is well worth sinking your claws into – and we’ve got a slew of free Steam keys to help you do just that.
The sequel to the equally adorable Cat Quest 1 and 2, Cat Quest 3 thrusts you into the shoes of a fluffy little ‘Purrvateer’ on a mission to take down the mischievous ‘Pi-rats.’ You’ll beat ’em up and accrue enough treasure to make Nathan Drake jealous, all while exploring the RPG‘s gorgeous 2.5D open world.
But dead cats tell no tails. The ferocious Pirate King is looking to hunt you down for handing his minions their respective butts, and he’s not pulling his punches. Much like Diablo or Path of Exile, you’ll need to refine your build to chain together explosive combos and take him down.
As an avid fan of all things ARPG, I love The Gentlebros’ take on the genre. Where Diablo’s Sanctuary is bloodstained, moody, and teeming with corruption, Cat Quest 3’s world is vibrant, cute, and exciting. I can’t wait to emulate the good ol’ days of Assassin’s Creed Black Flag with the ocean battles, and take down some chonky bosses on land with my busted builds.
