Prepare yourselves, goat-loving gamers! Goat Simulator is branching out, and not just into another video game iteration. Get ready for Goat Simulator: The Card Game! Yes, you read that right. This unexpected twist is set to hit stores later this year, promising all the chaotic fun of the original franchise, but in a delightfully card-based format.
Coffee Stain North, the masterminds behind the original Goat Simulator mayhem, have teamed up with MOOD Publishing (creators of Deep Rock Galactic: The Board Game and Valheim: The Board Game) to bring this bizarre but brilliant concept to life.
What We Know (So Far) About Goat Simulator: The Card Game
Details are still scarce, but we do know this much: Prepare for 2-6 player battles filled with goat-powered pandemonium. Expect the same brand of absurdity that made the video game a cult classic, now condensed into a beautifully packaged card game experience.
Launching on Kickstarter later this year, Goat Simulator: The Card Game is a physical card game. If you've ever experienced the sheer joy of launching a goat into the digital stratosphere, you can probably imagine the chaotic energy this card game will unleash.
Santiago Ferrero, Creative Director at Coffee Stain North, perfectly sums up the project: “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.”
From April Fool's Joke to Card Game Empire?
Who would have guessed? What began as an April Fool's Day joke in 2014 has blossomed into a full-fledged phenomenon. From PCs and consoles to mobile platforms (iOS, Android, and Apple Arcade), the Goat Simulator franchise continues to thrive. And now, with Goat Simulator 3 building upon its predecessor's legacy, a card game is the latest addition to this ever-expanding goat-filled universe.
In the meantime, you can find the existing Goat Simulator games on the Google Play Store. And stay tuned for our next gaming scoop on Solo Leveling: Arise—a new update featuring bosses and content with the Jeju Island Alliance Raid.
