Gang Beasts patch 1.28 comes out today for currently supported platforms. The 1.28 patch addresses a recently disclosed security vulnerability that can compromise the security of games made with specific versions of the Unity editor. Unity has published resources for patching versions of the Unity editor with this vulnerability (this includes Unity 2021.3.33f1, the build of Unity that Gang Beasts patch 1.27 was made with).To remove the potential for this vulnerability to be exploited it is important to delete older versions of Gang Beasts and install patch 1.28 as soon as you can.Gang Beasts 1

Gang Beasts is one of the games I think of when I recall the golden days of video game expos, before Covid rolled up and nuked the business model. It casts you as one of several jellybaby pugilists, fighting for dominance over such locations as Ferris wheels and the tops of speeding vans. All of the characters are 1) seemingly drunk, and 2) subject to real-time physics. Your abilities consist of 1) punching, headbutting or kicking people, perhaps knocking them out for a few seconds, and 2) grabbing people and things and either hoisting them skyward like a wrestler, or hoisting yourself skyward

Time to get to work - our new stage, Crane releases today! Crane is a brand new stage included in today’s 1.25 update. Located on the docks of Beef City, this stage will see players attempting to not fall off a large static Crane. This stage includes the first implementation of our new driveables system, with players being able to jump into the Crane cockpit to take the controls. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/6697542/9839b3b2e385de47d5722d01445408cc59f940fe.gif Don’t stay there too long though - the skies of Beef City are now filled with aggressive birds ready to take you for a quick flight.

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/6697542/243627d3c3aa655a95dbfc55ad612ccce143b5ab.jpg Gang Beasts Update 1.24 is releasing today for all currently supported platforms. This update is primarily focussed on bug fixes, and there is no new content. The key modification to Gang Beasts in this update is the implementation of a new Interactables System that will allow us to streamline how in-game objects are managed and interacted with in the game engine. This system improves performance by organising interactable objects into optimised lists, therefore making Gang Beasts interacting with the stages faster and mor

Gang Beasts patch 1.23 is releasing today for all currently supported platforms. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/6697542/44cb1286f40d0bf4647fe2eaecf664cfad478d78.jpg There are a number of bug fixes in the 1.23 release but no new stages or costumes. The key modification to the game in this build is the implementation of Unity’s Addressables Asset System, the adoption of this system standardises and optimises the process for testing and releasing game content. The Addressables implementation is a significant modification to the game and we expect the 1.23 build to trigger some limited stability issues on Win

Is It a Crane? (Update 1.21.1) {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/6697542/ebf187070a52139d07a828c5e969299881353e1d.png Roses are red, Violets are violet, Is It a Crane? It is a Crane! It has been ten full years of cartoon violence since the Gang Beasts 0.0.0 pre-alpha builds were published on Valentines Day 2014. For ten years the foaming masses of Beef City have slowly coagulated into gelatinous agglomerations of hostility, spreading through the grim streets of the Meatropolis. We're profoundly thankful to have an audience and community for Boneloaf's games and toys and for the miscellaneous scenes of sillin

The devs behind flailing fisticuffs multiplayer game Gang Beasts have revealed their hopes to resurrect its predecessor as their next major project, a decade after Boneloaf’s second wobbly wrestling hit took off and derailed their initial plans. Read more

Boneloaf - the developer behind multiplayer brawler Gang Beasts - is looking to move onto its next game in the near future. According to marketing and communications manager Connor Clarke at Develop 2023, the studio is considering a return to its original project: Grim Beasts. "Funnily enough, Gang Beasts was always the second game in a trilogy," states Clarke, sitting by the beach last week. "If you search back to the initial post on the Gang Beasts website back in 2013, you’ll see we were working on a game first - I won’t point it out, I’ll let you try and find out what it is - that will be

We’re working with Robot Teddy, Coatsink, Multiplay, and Lockit QA to hire more development, testing, and operations staff to support more frequent content and bug fixes and to build more exhaustive production and support processes.

Welcome, everyone! You may notice that there’s a brand new update to Gang Beasts, and we know it’s something you’ve all been waiting for, so we won’t keep you in suspense. Trawler has arrived! A brand new stage, filled with a deteriorating fishing trawler in an isolated sea and a whole shiver of sharks. That’s right, the lifeless black eyed creatures themselves will hop aboard and try to take you for a swim. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/6697542/1892ce9e04f32c1cd6ec0d5af3212391551f4f67.gif By “deteriorating fishing trawler”, we mean the stage will become just that.
