Ending today's Nintendo Indie World Showcase in style was a very welcome announcement for everyone's favourite honk fest, Untitled Goose Game. That's right, a free multiplayer update is on the way.
Allowing both you a friend to terrorise your once-peaceful little village together, this free content arrives on 23rd September. The presentation also gave us another quick look at the upcoming physical release for the game, although we knew about that already.
We kind of expected Untitled Goose Game to get some DLC one day, but the fact that this update comes free of charge is very welcome indeed. Here are a couple of screenshots showing the madness in action.
If you're interested, Nintendo and the developers behind the game will be hosting a Q+A on Twitter in a couple of days' time. Make sure to get involved.
Will you be honking with a friend next month? Let us know in the comments.

The title should be Untitled Geese Games 😉
I'm gonna play the HONK out of this with my kids.
Really, I feel like the biggest appeal of this game was always social (even if that meant watching someone else play) so adding co-op will really breathe new life into the game for me.
I was lowkey expecting this to be a sequel called Untitled Geese Game
Oh no, now there's TWO of them.
I went as crazy as one of those geese when I seen this!
The amusing thing about this, my nephew wanted Untitled Goose Game to have a two player mode... boy, he's in for a surprise!
Great to see this arrive especially free. Is it just a two player experience of the same game? Hope we get to explore more of the town or whatever with new challenges. Maybe stuff catered specifically for two geese?
If this does have its own multiplayer content that's awesome.
Wait, all it does is add multiplayer? I'd rather have more levels as paid DLC. Or a sequel.
Says a lot that they capped the presentation off with a free DLC update and yet no one is mad...because GOOSE
@PikaPhantom Goose unites the world when he damn feels like it
Probably the best thing to come from the Direct!
I couldn't even see the video announcement on the stream because I started the Indie Showcase a few minutes late, and the second the runtime finished the video was made private/taken down! Now I can't rewatch the showcase whatsoever.
EDIT: so it managed to reupload, and the video is working again, so never mind I guess?
...along with a physical release!!!
"Two honks are better than one"
HONK HONK!
For a moment I thought it would be a sequel.
Physical release is awesome news, especially as it's not from Limited Run or one of their contemporaries.
"This is getting out of hand! Now there are two of them!" 🤣
@Ulysses it’s up as a normal video on Nintendo youtube.
Great idea, though it'd be nice to get some new challenges built around the two-player component, since the game's existing puzzles were designed for the single-player experience.
@Beaucine I have a feeling there will be a whole new notebook of challenges focussed on the 2 geese antic potential!
@neogyo Yeah, that's exactly what I was thinking. It'd be really great, especially as an excuse to go back to the game!
@Beaucine It looks as though they added the second umbrella and bow color. I doubt that it'll add extra steps to the existing puzzles, but it could. Regardless, I'm just fine with throwing a second goose into the mix because it'll make NG+ speedrunning palatable.
Needs a dark souls type invasion mechanic. Another goose comes in and puts stuff back, basically.
Finally another excuse to get the physical copy
I havent taken the plunge on this game yet, but I've always seen it as something that I'd eventually bite the bullet on. Multiplayer will be my tipping point.
@HotGoomba Wow your profile Pic is Cursed
I hope they add more content in the future! Such an original idea and there are a lot more they could tackle to make one of the best games yet.
Oh dear. Peace was never an option with a goose, now there are two of them that will conquer the world. Humanity will cease to exist.
Can't wait for Untitled Geese Royale featuring 99 Geese, first one to clear the checklist moves to the next area
My daughter isn't old enough to play video games, but she enjoys making the goose honk. So come September, she and I will get to make our geese honk at each other. Looking forward to it.
I just watched the ad... IT ACTUALLY IS GETTING A PHYSICAL RELEASE!!! At least on the YouTube ad.
Just gimme Titled Goose Game.
@Dr_Corndog
This is lovely. Happy honking! 😆
My 4 year old is going to love this!!!
What would you honestly do in MP? Peck each other to death? 😂
@huyi ha ha
