For a franchise renowned for its irreverent humor and playful antics, the recent Goat Direct showcase for Goat Simulator took a surprisingly different approach with fewer practical jokes than expected. Instead, the event focused on unveiling exciting new merchandise, including plushies and the CRKD controller line, alongside a sneak peek at an upcoming card game.
However, the highlight for many was the announcement that the eagerly awaited Goat Simulator 3 expansion, Multiverse of Nonsense, is set to launch on mobile platforms. While a specific release date remains under wraps, fans can look forward to more details soon. This expansion promises to take players on a wild journey through parallel universes, featuring diverse settings such as a cartoon-themed town, a city populated by goats, and a mythical mountaintop.

But wait, there's more: In celebration of April Fool's Day, Coffee Stain North has released a free update for Goat Simulator 3. This 10th-anniversary update introduces 27 new pieces of gear, two new events in San Angora, and a unique goat skin inspired by the upcoming Pilgor plushie, slated for release later this year.
It's somewhat fitting that Goat Direct chose to minimize the practical jokes. Given the series' history of outlandish additions, any further fictional announcements might have frustrated fans eager for genuine content.
