Party Animals Release Date, Trailers, Gameplay, and System Requirements

Have you ever thought about what would happen if Gang Beasts, a game with wobbly characters, had adorable animals instead? Well, your curiosity is about to be satisfied! Party Animals is a fighting game where the characters follow the rules of physics.

It became very popular on Steam’s wishlist and has stayed near the top ever since. It only got pushed down by games like Starfield and Hogwarts Legacy. If you’re excited about playing Party Animals, we’ve got all the info you need about this game that’s coming soon.

Party Animals Release Date

The Party Animals game will finally be available on Wednesday, September 20, 2023. You can play it on Steam and Xbox Game Pass. We got this great news from a trailer shown during Summer Game Fest. Originally, it was supposed to come out in 2022, but then they delayed it again during The Game Awards in December 2022.

If you’re really excited and can’t wait for it to come out, they’ll have some early tests called Party Animals closed betas that you can play. You can check our guide for the release date of Alan Wake 2, an upcoming survival horror game.

Party Animals Closed Beta

The first closed beta test for Party Animals was from September 1 to September 3, 2023. There will be two more closed beta tests, one from September 8 to September 10 and another from September 15 to September 19.

The special testing phase, called closed beta, will begin on September 8th at 8:00 AM and end on September 10th at 8:00 AM (Eastern Time). Another closed beta will start on September 15th at 8:00 AM and finish on September 19th at 11:59 PM (Eastern Time). People who get to try it out are chosen by chance.

Party Animals Trailers

We got our first good look at Party Animals in a trailer on Steam that came out in June 2020. In the video, you can see animals driving cars and boats, and then they start fighting using realistic physics. The game is all about animals having battles in a fun, open-world setting.

One year of no news, but then in June 2021, they finally showed a new trailer for the game on Xbox. This trailer was much better than the first one because it showed more of the game, like the characters and how you can play it. They also said the game will be available on Game Pass when it comes out.

On 9 December 2022, they showed a new trailer for Party Animals at The Game Awards. In the trailer, they didn’t show entirely new gameplay, but they did tell us about the characters and fancy clothes we can use in the game. They also confirmed some of the places we can play in. There’s going to be a submarine, a really cold plane, a train station, a mysterious black hole, and even a soccer field in the game.

Party Animals Gameplay

We’ve mostly seen Party Animals in trailers. They had a demo on Steam in 2020, but the game has changed a lot since then. Recreate Studios basically started over and made big changes to the game. So, we haven’t seen much of how the game actually plays now.

Based on what we’ve seen on the Party Animals website and in the trailers, these cute creatures can pick up stuff and use weapons, do wrestling moves like in WWE, and play with the world around them. Some maps have moving trains, icy places, and black holes that players can use to beat their opponents.

We also know that we can choose from different weapons. We’ve seen the crossbow being used, but it seems we can also pick things like tennis racquets, boomerangs, and nunchucks. You can refer to our guide for information on Helldivers 2, which is a third-person shooter game where you play in a squad. It explains how the gameplay works.

Party Animals comes with three different ways to play: Last Stand, Team Score, and Arcade.

1. In Last Stand, the team with the last dog, cat, or bunny standing wins.
2. In Team Score, you need to get more points than the other team by playing different games.
3. Arcade mode is a fun mix of games on different maps with different rules.
