For a series renowned for its irreverent humor and playful antics, Goat Simulator's Goat Direct showcase took a surprisingly more subdued approach with fewer practical jokes than fans might have expected. Instead, the event focused on exciting new merchandise announcements and other tantalizing details that are sure to delight fans.
Among the highlights were new collectibles, including plushies and the innovative CRKD controller line, alongside a sneak peek at an upcoming card game. However, the spotlight shone brightest on the announcement that Goat Simulator 3 for mobile will soon receive the Multiverse of Nonsense expansion pack. While a specific release date remains under wraps, the developers have assured fans that more information will be forthcoming.
As suggested by its name, Multiverse of Nonsense promises to catapult players into a parallel universe brimming with bizarre and whimsical alterations. From a cartoon-inspired town to a city populated entirely by goats, or even a mythical mountaintop, the expansion aims to push the boundaries of the game's already wild world.
But there's more excitement in store! To mark April Fool's Day, Coffee Stain North has also rolled out a free update for Goat Simulator 3. This 10th-anniversary celebration introduces 27 new pieces of gear, two fresh events in San Angora, and a unique goat skin inspired by the upcoming Pilgor plushie, set to launch later this year.
In a way, the lighter tone of Goat Direct feels fitting. Given the series' track record of outlandish additions, the absence of faux announcements amidst genuine, eagerly awaited content likely prevents any potential frustration among the global fanbase.
