The recent Goat Direct showcase for Goat Simulator wrapped up with a surprising lack of the series' trademark humor and practical jokes. Instead, the event focused on unveiling new merchandise, including plushies and a CRKD controller line, along with a sneak peek at an upcoming card game. However, the highlight for fans was the announcement of the "Multiverse of Nonsense" expansion pack for Goat Simulator 3, set to launch on mobile devices soon. While a specific release date remains under wraps, more details are expected to be shared shortly.
As the name suggests, "Multiverse of Nonsense" will transport players into a parallel universe filled with bizarre and whimsical settings, ranging from cartoon-themed towns to cities populated entirely by goats and mythical mountain tops. This expansion promises to keep the series' tradition of absurdity alive and well.
**But wait, there's more** Alongside 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 an alternative goat skin inspired by the upcoming Pilgor plushie, set to be released later this year.
The subdued approach to humor during the Goat Direct seems fitting given the series' history of outlandish additions. Introducing more fake announcements amidst real ones could have been more frustrating than entertaining for the dedicated fanbase eagerly awaiting new content.
