Watch in horror and amusement as gangs of gummy miscreants fight to grab, push, pull, and force their enemies from suspended scaffolds, neglected funfair attractions, and commercial haulage trucks. Gasp with shock and delight at the spectacle of pugnacious thugs punching, kicking, and throwing their foes into hazardous machinery, flaming incinerator pits, and into the path of moving trains.
Gang Beasts will launch with a whole glut of customization options, and with several new modes, including clumsy-yet-brutal 2 vs. 2 soccer matches, and a cooperative mode where up to 4 players battle against waves of thugs. Set to the slick, synth beats of Adam (Doseone) Drucker and Robert (Dirty Bob) Larder, Gang Beasts’ kickbutt soundtrack grooves with every fighting maneuver.
Gang Beasts is currently available on PS4, PC (Steam and the Humble Store), or as an Oculus Early Access game for the Oculus Rift headset, and will be coming to Xbox One on January 23, 2019 for $19.99 but fans can pre-order the game starting January 9 to receive a 20% discount. PC and PS4 versions will also receive updates to enhance gameplay next month.
