So, it is April 1, and Goat Simulator developer
Espresso Stain has simply hosted a Goat Direct with a bunch of bulletins associated to the collection, together with a free Goat Simulator 3 replace with a bunch of latest gear.
It is smart for the Goat Sim group to share some precise information on April Fools’ Day, given that it is the 11 12 months anniversary of the unique Goat Sim popping out in all of its janky, sport jammy glory. Nevertheless, this 12 months the devs have used the identify of their showcase to play into the actual fact Nintendo’s internet hosting an enormous Change 2 Direct you may need heard about tomorrow, April 2.
Given the timing, at a Goat Direct press convention, I requested Goat Sim 3 inventive director Santiago Ferrero and producer Olivia Follin if they have or are hoping to have any huge plans Goat Sim-wise particularly for the brand new console as soon as it is out.
“It is at all times good to be on all platforms and be up-to-date with all the following/present gen [hardware],” Ferrero stated, “That is at all times the imaginative and prescient or the plan with Goat Sim 3 particularly, to be on all the pieces after which we’ll see when and if [Switch 2 stuff] occurs.”
“We began on three platforms…then we have realised we should be all over the place,” Follin added, “and now I feel we’re on 10 or 11 platforms, so what’s yet another? [Switch 2] could be fairly cool.”

Whereas they did not have something concrete to share by way of Goat Sim on Change 2 (although it is possible you may no less than be capable to play the present Goat Sim ports by way of backwards compatibility), the Goat Direct did see the group announce a brand new free replace to Goat Sim 3 referred to as Presents from the Rifts. Designed to shut out the tenth 12 months of Goat Sim being a factor, it options 27 new gears, plus a further hidden gear, and a brand new goat within the type of Plushie Pilgor, which might flip all the pieces it touches into toys like an enormous consumerism machine gun with hooves.
All of that – which Ferrero defined is essentially stuff the group has labored on over time after which pulled collectively as a free replace – will drop from the sky by way of balloons, supplying you with loads to search out. Ferrero described it as “a pleasant approach of getting one thing out, with out spending an excessive amount of time away from the larger growth that we’re engaged on”. That growth, it appears, is what was teased on the very finish of the Goat Direct, however no different deets about it had been shared right here.
Past that, the Pilgor “A Goat” outfit shall be returning to the Fortnite merchandise store to shut out the collection’ 12 months of tenth birthday celebrations, and Goat Sim 3’s Multiverse of Nonsense DLC shall be arriving on cell quickly. Plus, Goat Simulator: The Card Sport’s Kickstarter launches on April 30.
