Gang Beasts players, get ready for absolute mayhem as Boneloaf’s beloved multiplayer brawler just got a massive new update! Released on November 20, 2024, this latest patch adds a mind-bending stage that literally rises—and promptly drops—the stakes of every match. The new dynamic Crane level introduces even more ways to hurl your opponents to their doom or, more likely, get hilariously tossed off yourself. With Gang Beasts’ absurd physics and unpredictable gameplay, you’ll be laughing (or yelling) your way through the chaos.
A Crane Like No Other
The new Crane stage is no small addition. It’s not just a simple platform—the entire battlefield shifts as you fight, creating unpredictable moments that will have you hanging on for dear life. In true Gang Beasts style, the stage features moving parts, abrupt drops, and sections that can put your positioning and reflexes to the test. If you thought dodging punches from your friends was hard enough, wait until you’re trying to scramble up a dangling crane while the ground underneath you collapses.
To make things even wilder, this stage comes with some serious hazards. Birds are now a part of the equation, swooping down to grab unsuspecting players and send them flying across the map. Whether they’ll ruin your perfectly timed grab or give you a free ride to safety—or doom—depends on your luck and maybe how much your opponent is paying attention.
Fresh Costumes for More Hilarious Fights
You didn’t think Boneloaf would stop at just a new stage, did you? True to form, the update includes a fresh set of costumes, letting you dress your gelatinous fighter in new bizarre and goofy outfits. While Gang Beasts’ customization options have always been a big part of the fun, this update expands those hilarious wardrobe choices even further. Want to duke it out in a pirate outfit, or maybe a ridiculous bird costume (to match the new stage hazard, perhaps)? Well, now you can.
With the game’s emphasis on chaotic fun and slapstick brawling, these new costumes are sure to make each fight even more memorable, whether you’re playing locally with friends or hopping online to clash with strangers.
The Community is Thrilled—and Still as Competitive as Ever
The Gang Beasts community has already jumped on this new content, with Twitch streams showcasing the pandemonium in real-time. Fans have been loving the Crane stage for its unpredictability and jaw-dropping moments, with many players finding themselves flung off the edge by the very hazards they were hoping to avoid. If you’ve been lurking on the game’s official Twitch directory, you’ve probably seen a few spectacular “fails” from this new update already.
And, of course, the competitive side of the community is hard at work mastering this stage in ways that only top-tier Gang Beasts players could. Expect to see some high-level tactics revolving around knocking enemies into the birds or capitalizing on the Crane’s sudden drops to throw brawlers off balance.
Newcomers, Jump Right In!
If you’ve never played Gang Beasts before, this update is the perfect excuse to give it a shot. Available on multiple platforms (check out their Steam page for the PC version), the game is known for its zany, physics-based brawling, where up to eight players punch, kick, and throw each other around in ridiculous fashion. Whether you’re playing solo, with friends, or online, it’s a great pick for those who love chaotic multiplayer games.
For those new to the game, a few quick tips: headbutts are your friend, and never underestimate the power of a good grab. Gang Beasts’ physics can be wonky but learning the basics of how to control your character’s movements with just the right amount of randomness can make you a formidable opponent. Stay aware of environmental hazards—they tend to be even deadlier than your foes!
