Goat Simulator's Goat Direct showcase concluded today with a surprisingly subdued approach to humor, deviating from the series' tradition of irreverent and comical content. Instead, the spotlight was on new merchandise announcements, including plushies and the CRKD controller line, along with a tease for an upcoming card game.
The highlight of the event, however, was the exciting news that the Goat Simulator 3 expansion pack, Multiverse of Nonsense, is set to launch on mobile devices soon. While a specific release date remains under wraps, fans can expect more details to be released shortly. This expansion promises to transport players into a parallel universe, featuring bizarre locales such as a cartoon-themed town, a city populated by goats, and a mythical mountaintop.
In addition to the expansion announcement, Coffee Stain North unveiled a free update for Goat Simulator 3 in celebration of April Fool's Day. This 10th-anniversary update introduces 27 new pieces of gear, two new events in San Angora, and a unique goat skin inspired by the upcoming Pilgor plushie, set to be released later this year.
The lighter tone on practical jokes during the Goat Direct seems fitting, considering the series' history of outlandish additions. Adding more fictitious features might have frustrated fans eagerly awaiting real content.
