Developed by Recreate Games, Party Animals features 23 maps and three different modes, with gameplay similar to titles like Gang Beasts, the 2014 indie party game hit by Boneloaf. As it's been almost a full decade since the release of Gang Beasts, it seems fitting that titles like Party Animals are being released to sate the cravings that many gamers may have for addictive co-op titles. Unfortunately, Party Animals was somewhat limited, as it was only released on Game Pass-compatible systems.
Recently, a PlayStation listing appeared for Party Animals, indicating that Recreate Games is preparing to target an even wider audience. Gamers are excited at the prospect, and it's likely that the game's similarities to Gang Beasts will convince more players to give it a try. On its PlayStation store page, Recreate Games pitches Party Animals as the "best game for a Saturday night with friends." The title features up to eight-player online multiplayer and shared split-screen play.
From its 2023 release, Party Animals has received plenty of positive reception, in addition to some that seem mixed on the title. Some players have pointed out that the game's controls are particularly sluggish. Other players have noted that the title hasn't added a ton since its release, hampering its replayability for those wanting fresh content. Despite these hiccups, many players enjoy the game's visual design and slapstick humor.
In the case of ports like this one, it's a possibility that Recreate Games is considering adding more content to keep the title fresh. In some cases, new content can be version-exclusive, like DLC costumes in the Nintendo Switch port of Nier: Automata. Party Animals' presence on new platforms opens up the possibility for it to show up on the Switch, which has been advertised as the perfect party-game console by Nintendo. Players can hopefully look forward to seeing Party Animals on even more systems in the future.
