With the game already parodying Dead Island 2 in its announcement, maybe the leap to the 3 subtitle is playing off the sequel craze in gaming and entertainment. Why exactly would Coffee Stain skip over Goat Simulator 2 and go straight to 3? There’s no correct answer as far as we know, but it is an expert-level troll from the developer.
While the game got plenty of post-launch support from the developers, it never received a proper sequel, until now. Goat Simulator was first released for Windows back in 2014, and was ported to various consoles and devices over the next several years. No, there was definitely never a Goat Simulator 2. However, we found ourselves asking, how did we get to Goat Simulator 3? Was there a Goat Simulator 2 that we’re all collectively forgetting? Let’s investigate.
The trailer parodied the Dead Island 2 reveal and got us hyped up to start causing mayhem as these chaotic goats once more.
During Summer Game Fest 2022, Coffee Stain delivered one of the funniest trailers of the year with its reveal of Goat Simulator 3.
