Build today's squad for a coherent tactical job, then breed survivors for tomorrow's options; a strong lineage is useful because it expands decisions, not because one cat solves everything.
Mewgenics has two linked decisions: assemble a squad that can finish today's adventure, then preserve traits that improve tomorrow's house. The official Steam description calls this the Cat Loop—choose cats, equip class-specific collars, fight tactical battles, return with experience and scars, and breed across generations.
Use the Mewgenics breeding and legacy guide to separate immediate combat needs from long-term lineage decisions. The key is role coverage: field cats whose classes and abilities solve positioning, protection, and damage problems together, then breed for useful future combinations rather than a single inflated trait.
Mewgenics released February 10, 2026, for Windows PC. Steam describes more than ten classes, 75 abilities per class, more than 900 items, and a campaign intended to support very long play. Those are official scope statements, not a promise that every item or ability appears in an early run.
The August 21 Steam API snapshot showed more than 49,000 recommendations. That demand and current editorial recognition justify a permanent annual-game dossier, but individual ability rankings still require current in-game verification. This first edition stays with the verified loop and decision framework.
