Gang Beasts - Wikipedia Gang Beasts Gang Beasts Storefront logo of Gang Beasts Developer ( s ) Boneloaf Publisher ( s ) Double Fine Presents Engine Unity Platform ( s ) Microsoft Windows OS X Linux PlayStation 4 Release Microsoft Windows, OS X, Linux WW : TBA PlayStation 4 WW : 2017 Genre ( s ) Beat ' em up, party Mode ( s ) Single - player, multiplayer Gang Beasts is an upcoming multiplayer beat ' em up party video game developed by Boneloaf and published by Double Fine Presents. The game released on Steam Early Access for Microsoft Windows, OS X, and Linux on 29 August 2014. The game is expected to release on the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation VR during 2017. The game has been tested and reviewed on the Oculus Rift platform. News regarding the game making an appearance on the Xbox One seems unhopeful due to Microsoft 's parity clause, which states that games must be released on the same day as rival consoles. Thus, this has created complications and the developers of the game are considering to not launch the game on the Xbox One, as of right now. Only rumors have surfaced in regards to a possible Nintendo Switch release. One of the developers, however, has made a comment stating that they have discussed and entertained the possibility of development for the console. Contents 1 Gameplay 2 Reception 3 References 4 External links Gameplay Gang Beasts is a multiplayer party game with gelatinous characters, melee fight sequences, and hazardous environments, set in the fictional metropolis of Beef City. At initial release it contained 8 multiplayer stages. The core gameplay involves using various physical abilities such as punching or kicking an opponent until they are `` knocked out '', and then attempting to toss them over one of the stage hazards. Opponents that have been knocked down are not completely defenseless however, as they can fight back to be released.
