Goat Simulator 3 gameplay trailer simulates more goats than ever

Last year's announcement of Goat Simulator 3 was a big surprise—in no small part because there was never a Goat Simulator 2. And at last you can witness the goat simulation's simulated goats going absolutely ape in the four player co-op sandbox. Have a look at the chaotic new gameplay trailer above, shown at Gamescom Opening Night Live.

Run, jump, headbutt, and even jetpack your way through a world filled with hapless humans and everything else from hammerhead sharks to angry rhinos. It looks like there will be plenty to keep you and your fellow goats busy, with soccer games, car chases, tractor duels, jousting, hang gliding, and the wanton destruction of the unfortunate town that is home to these violent goats.

Goat Simulator 3 launches on November 17 on the Epic Games Store and Microsoft Store. There's still no word on when we might get Goat Simulator 2.

Chris started playing PC games in the 1980s, started writing about them in the early 2000s, and (finally) started getting paid to write about them in the late 2000s. Following a few years as a regular freelancer, PC Gamer hired him in 2014, probably so he'd stop emailing them asking for more work. Chris has a love-hate relationship with survival games and an unhealthy fascination with the inner lives of NPCs. He's also a fan of offbeat simulation games, mods, and ignoring storylines in RPGs so he can make up his own.
