Goat Simulator's Goat Direct showcase, known for its irreverent and humorous tone, took a surprising turn by featuring fewer practical jokes than expected. Instead, the focus shifted to an array of new merchandise announcements, including plushies and a unique CRKD controller line, alongside a tease of an upcoming card game. However, the highlight for many was the confirmation of the "Multiverse of Nonsense" expansion pack for Goat Simulator 3 on mobile platforms. Although a specific release date remains under wraps, fans can anticipate more details soon.
As suggested by its name, "Multiverse of Nonsense" will transport players into a parallel universe brimming with bizarre and whimsical transformations. Whether it's navigating a cartoon-themed town, exploring a city populated entirely by goats, or scaling a mythical mountaintop, the expansion promises a delightfully absurd experience.
**But wait, there's more** - In celebration of April Fool's Day, Coffee Stain North also unveiled a free update for Goat Simulator 3. This 10th-anniversary update introduces 27 new pieces of gear, two new events in San Angora, and a new goat skin inspired by the upcoming Pilgor plushie, set to launch later this year.
The relative scarcity of practical jokes during the Goat Direct showcase might be seen as fitting, given the series' history of introducing outlandish features. Including fake announcements amidst genuine reveals could have been more frustrating than funny for the dedicated goat fanbase.
