Goat Simulator
Publisher Deep Silver announced today that it will be distributing Coffee Stain Studio’s Indie cult hit Goat Simulator as a physical product for PC in North America. The physical version of the debut game in the Goat Simulator genre will be available at participating retail stores for $9.99 by mid-July, and will include the new patch 1.1 content.
The new patch content, which is now live on current versions and is free-to-download with the game installed, features new playable goats, the ability to ride bikes and skateboards, a new map, and local four-player split screen multiplayer mode. The patch also includes the new game modes Capture the Flag, Racing Mode, and Ragdoll Hockey.
It’s rather difficult to describe Goat Simulator except to say that it is exactly what it says it is: players take control of a goat and navigate a small sandbox environment, coping with physics-based gameplay that is buggy and broken by-design. It’s a truly absurd game that really needs to be seen to be comprehended, so you can watch us give it a try in this test chamber.
Goat Simulator originally released on steam and available in that format for PC, iOS, and Linux. If you think you may want to live a day in the life of a goat, check out our review of the truly unique title.
