It’s time for a party! This one will, however, be pretty wild. Party Animals is a fun game perfect for any meeting with your friends or family. Just be careful: this game is all about fighting!
Like Gang Beasts
Produced by Recreate Games, Party Animals is a game that, in many aspects, resembles the hugely popular Gang Beasts from British indie studio Boneleaf. There will be chaos, laughter, and uncontrollable excitement! In Party Animals, players will assume the role of fuzzy fighters: seemingly adorable animals like cats, dogs, otters, and unicorns, to name a few. Don’t let their cuteness fool you. These creatures are all about fighting!

Gameplay
The mechanics of the game are pretty simple: players have to control their avatars using a variety of basic fighting moves, including punching, kicking, jumping, throwing, and headbutting their opponents. They can also use some weapons like crossbows or some sort of electro-shocking device. The goal is straightforward: defeat everyone else and be the last man standing! All moves are allowed: you can also team up with other players and betray them to secure your win. Fair or not, Party Animals is a game meant to be unpredictable and chaotic.

The environment of the game will, similarly to Gang Beasts, respond to what is happening around it and also act independently. That will mean lots of funny and unexpected moments: a black hole sucking everyone in, a train coming out of nowhere, or a rocket launching. Those might stop even the fiercest fighters, so be careful and use the elements of the environment to your advantage.
Maps are colorful and pretty diverse, so expect no boredom. Each game will be fun and filled with unexpected surprises. Locations are also pretty chaotic: you’ll fight in ancient ruins, a running train, a plane, a Christmas village, a football pitch, and many, many more! Each map boasts unique mechanics that enrich the gameplay. Some of them require cooperation, some will just randomly appear during the battle, forcing you to think on your feet.
Is Party Animals a game for me?
If you are looking for a fun, lighthearted title to play during a social meeting, Party Animals will be the perfect choice. The mechanics are simple and straightforward, so no experience in gaming is needed in order to enjoy the game. On the other hand, experienced gamers will love the intense battles and different strategies needed to win. Party Animal is a game for all types of players! There’s also an option to play the game in online multiplayer mode, meaning you can play with players from all over the world. If you played Gang Beasts, you will love this game too, especially since it introduces even more mechanics.

Release date and platforms
Party Animals will be available on PC and Xbox consoles on release day. Whether the game will join the PlayStation systems, we don’t know; no news on this topic has been shared. Unfortunately, no precise release date has been announced yet, but you can expect the game to launch in late 2023. Stay tuned for more information about platforms and release dates!
