With how much people (including me) have been theorizing/wishing with all their hearts that Catrinne is a new playable character coming to the roster, and with how unlikely it is that that’s actually the case…

Trailer for Catrinne as a new character for April Fool’s. All your weapons are brushes or quills. You can’t fight, you can only put down a frame and start painting, and carry gear for the other three.
Best gameplay.

So, here we are, it’s April 1st. Happy fools day?

It’s a tricky situation to navigate. On one hand, humour and fun is something we all need a bit of right now, but on the other hand we all need to be sensitive towards each other, as the situation in the world is unfolding differently in different nations, states and continents.

With that in mind, we did prepare an April Fools joke a while back, nothing too outlandish but something fun. However, upon review of that piece we felt that it would be perhaps insensitive and would be a little off-message and contrary to some of the advice being issued by governments across the globe.

So for 2020, the year of now, we will not be providing frovility in the form of a seasonal gag. We just want you all to stay well, stay safe, stay inside, play games/watch films/learn something/play board games with the family or those you live with.

Big love from all of us.

We may repurpose and ‘make grander’ the gag for next year. We planned this some time ago (before these events) and to not spoil it but clue you in, a key message in the gag was one of an outdoorsy/quasi-social nature, and as such really not the right gag for the timeline.

But even more importantly, Fake News is absolutely not something that should be encouraged right now. Sure, we’re a video game developer and not the BBC or WHO or someone you come to for real world news, but tonally it’s just not right for anyone really to be making fake news right now :slight_smile:

No April Fools? I’m disappointed, I hope we get Genevieve Dieudonné as a playable character to make up for this.
