Prepare to be surprised—Goat Simulator is venturing into new territory with its very own card game! Yes, you read that right, and I'm just as excited as you are to see how this will unfold. It's slated to hit the shelves later this year, so mark your calendars.
Coffee Stain North, the mastermind behind the original Goat Simulator, is joining forces with MOOD Publishing, known for creating hits like Deep Rock Galactic: The Board Game and Valheim: The Board Game, to bring us this new card game experience.
What Else Do We Know About Goat Simulator: The Card Game?
While the developers are keeping their cards close to the chest, we do know that Goat Simulator: The Card Game will support 2-6 players, engaging them in a wild, goat-driven mayhem. It's set to capture the essence of the franchise's absurdity and package it into a fun, card-filled box.
This physical card game is gearing up for a Kickstarter launch later this year. If you're familiar with the chaos of yeeting a goat into oblivion in the video game, you can start to picture the kind of energy this card game will bring to your tabletop.
Santiago Ferrero, the Creative Director at Coffee Stain North, summed up the project with a touch of humor: "Chaotic animal-based video games are so last year. That’s why we’ve partnered with MOOD Publishing to release a chaotic animal-based card game instead! You’ve seen goats on your screen; now it’s time to bring them to your table."
Who Knew Goat Simulation Would Become a Genre in Itself?
What began as an April Fool's prank in 2014 has evolved into a cultural phenomenon. Goat Simulator has not only dominated PCs and consoles but also made its mark on the Nintendo Switch, iOS, Android, and Apple Arcade, staying relevant year after year.
With Goat Simulator 3 continuing to build on this absurd legacy, the addition of a card game to the series is just another step in its unexpected journey. While we wait for the card game's release, you can explore the Goat Simulator games on the Google Play Store.
