Goat Simulator 3[a] is an action video game and the sequel to Goat Simulator. The game was announced during Summer Game Fest and was released on November 17, 2022.[3][4] The game features a four-player cooperative mode,[5] and it is set on the fictional island of San Angora.[6] The game will not feature cross-platform multiplayer upon release.[7]

Gameplay

Goat Simulator 3, like its predecessor, is an action game played in a third-person perspective where the goal, controlling the goat player character, is to wreak havoc and perform stunts in the game's urban environment.[8][9][10] A mechanic of the previous game where the playable goat can hitch themselves to items and objects found in the world by licking them is retained in this game.[11][10][9] The developers claim that its open world is 18 times larger than that of the first game.[9][10] Additionally, sections exist where different gameplay styles are explored, such as a parody of Wolfenstein 3D with first-person shooter mechanics.[12][13][14] A story mode, new to the series, also appears in Goat Simulator 3.[14][9]

Reception

According to Metacritic, the PC and PlayStation 5 version Goat Simulator 3 currently have "mixed or average reviews", with a score of 69 out of 100,[15][16] while the Xbox Series X version currently has a score of 80 out of a 100, with a "generally favorable reviews".[17]

Notes
