Gaming Content
Cat started his channel without a clear direction, except for the fact that he wanted to produce video game content. He posted videos of various games he was interested in for the next few months, until he started to focus on the game “Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2”. It is a first person shooter game developed by Infinity Ward, released in 2007 to huge critical acclaim. It is a direct sequel to “Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare” continuing the story, and follows a group of Special Forces soldiers known as Task Force 141, headed by Captain Soap MacTavish.
Later on, he shifted his focus towards the game “Minecraft”, as most of his viewers were enjoying that type of content. It is a sandbox video game which allows players to build using a variety of blocks inside a 3D procedurally generated world. Players can also engage in other activities such as combat, resource gathering, crafting, and exploration. Since its release, the game has won numerous awards and received critical acclaim. It is regarded as one of the most influential games in history and is the bestselling video game of all time, selling over 176 million copies as of 2019.
While he does a lot of “Minecraft” videos, he has tried playing other games on his main channel from time to time. He has done videos on popular battle royale games such as “PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds” and “Fortnite Battle Royale”. The latter is one of the most popular games of recent years, drawing in over 125 million players since its release in 2018. In Battle Royale games, up to 100 players fight to be the last person standing.
