'Mutant Football League 2' To Get Antarctica Scumdogs DLC In October, Adds Metal Band GWAR - Trailer

by Rainier on Sept. 2, 2026 @ 12:53 p.m. PDT

Mutant Football League 2 is bigger and faster than the original and hits harder, with vicious new Dirty Tricks and expanded roles for All Stars.

If you’ve ever thought “what if Mutant Football League had even more features, more plays, and more multiplayer,” you’re not alone. Digital Dreams Entertainment thought the same, so they decided to make a sequel: Mutant Football League 2.

Digital Dreams is building Mutant Football League 2 for next-gen consoles, which allows for a substantially higher level of presentation quality thanks in no small part to physically based rendering. Improved lighting and shadow effects, smoother animations, and a more advanced collision system are just some of the planned improvements.

Developer Digital Dreams is also going deep on Mutant Football League 2’s online features, adding new modes and ways to shake up the classic game. Whether you’re online or off, Digital Dreams is giving you even more ways to strategize by adding an eighth player to the field, raising the number of receivers to four.


You prayed. GWAR heard. And they're coming.

Digital Dreams Entertainment announced Mutant Football League 2: Antarctica Scumdogs, a brand-new DLC pack starring the boundary-breaking metal band, launching for PS5, PC (Steam), and Xbox Series X|S in October 2026.

GWAR tore a new cosmic wormhole in the fabric of space and spilled out into the Mutant Football League 2 universe, where sport is almost as violent as they are — where players are mutilated, referees can be murdered, cheating is encouraged, and sometimes the best defense is simply killing the other team.

It feels just like home for GWAR. 

“MFL fans have been asking me for years, "When are you going to get GWAR into the game?” said Michael Mendheim, president of Digital Dreams Entertainment, “Well, the wait is finally over. Football just got louder, bloodier, and a whole lot more GWAR. The Antarctica Scumdogs are coming to MFL2, and we’re making damn sure they’re the deadliest team in the game.”

For more than three decades, GWAR has brought its unique combination of heavy metal, outrageous characters, elaborate mythology, satire, and spectacular stage shows to fans around the world. Now the Scumdogs have found a new stage.

And this one has goalposts.

It's the perfect nightmare playground for GWAR, and a crossover MFL2 players have been begging for. Antarctica Scumdogs is the band's first video game appearance in more than 30 years, and the only time you can be GWAR. The band's MFL2 team includes: 

  • Blöthar the Berserker
  • BälSäc the Jaws 'O Death
  • JiZMak Da Gusha
  • Grodius Maximus
  • Beefcake the Mighty
  • Sawborg Destructo
  • Bonesnapper

GWAR lead singer Blöthar the Berserker commented, "Today, the Antarctica Scumdogs of GWAR take to the frozen tundra of the Mutant Football League, where killing isn’t everything, it’s the ONLY thing! Let the games begin!!" 

In true GWAR fashion, the Scumdogs are built to destroy everything in sight, but mainly you. They are the most physically destructive team in MFL2, designed around a philosophy of brutality and carnage and turning every match into a white-knuckle battle for survival. If you're playing against GWAR, the score is the last thing on your mind. 

It wouldn't be GWAR without a killer venue. Antarctica Scumdogs introduces a spectacular new stadium steeped in GWAR mythology - along with a few surprises we're saving for launch.

MFL2 + GWAR World Debut @ PAX, September 4-7, 2026

The GWAR: Antarctica Scumdogs DLC for Mutant Football League 2 will make its worldwide playable debut at PAX West in Seattle from Sept. 4–7, and attendees visiting Digital Dreams Entertainment's booth can be the first anywhere to take GWAR onto the MFL2 gridiron.
