Today’s Nintendo Indie World Showcase unveiled Untitled Goose Game multiplayer along with a host of other new indie titles for Switch. On top of the upcoming 2-player co-op goose action, Nintendo has also now launched a wide-ranging eShop sale with some of the indie games featured in the latest Indie World Showcase. Head below for a closer look at everything.
Untitled Goose Game multiplayer:
Untitled Goose Game puts players in the webbed feet of a mischievous little goose whose main goal is to wreak havoc on unassuming villagers. It released to rave reviews and even got its own LEGO Ideas kit. Well, now you can steal sandwiches, wreck flower gardens, play harmonicas, and honk your little goose heart out with a friend in the upcoming Untitled Goose Game multiplayer mode.
Developer House House is adding a second goose to the game so you and your friends can ruin everyone’s day together. The new goose appears to be mostly the same as the titular star but with a different sounding honk. It’s not entirely clear if the gameplay will change at all with the introduction of a second goose, but it does look like the new waterfowl duo can work together to some degree — we see them dragging a larger picnic basket in tandem as part of today’s announcement trailer:
Untitled Goose Game multiplayer, or two-player cooperative mode as it is officially called, will launch on September 23 as a free update to all players. On the same day, the multi-platform game will also extend its reach to Steam and itch.io. Pre-orders for the physical copies coming to Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 4 are now live and set for release on September 29, 2020.
