Just in case the eShop's most beloved feathery goose had slipped your mind over the past few weeks, here's your reminder that Untitled Goose Game is being treated to some double-honk multiplayer goodness today.
Available for free, this new content lets you and a friend terrorise the poor inhabitants of Goose Game's village as a team. You'll be able to play through the entire game with a friend in local multiplayer, which sounds like the perfect excuse to pick it back up for a second run, or perhaps try it out for the first time if you missed it last year.
Helpfully, the press release explains, "One of you plays as one goose, the other one plays as the other goose." Excellent.
Recently, developer House House dropped an absolute bombshell by revealing that 'the other goose' has a different honk to OG Goose. It also has a slightly different beak, if you hadn't already noticed, so you shouldn't get the two mixed up.
Will you be checking out Untitled Goose Game's new multiplayer content today? Honk twice in the comments below.

...local play only?
Me and my son, we are ready!
HONK!!!!!!!!!! HONK!!!!!!!!!!
(Blimey... even with additional exclamation marks, the comment wasn't long enough! 😆)
I'm in for some multiplayer shenanigans with one of my sons. Honk! HONK!
That's a neat little update, but my other half doesn't have any interest in the game. Anything with puzzle mechanics gets a hard 'no' from him! I need to wait a while longer to allow myself to forget the solutions to some of the puzzles before I pick this up again.
Though short, this game was definitely a 10 in my book. Absolutely hilarious and cleverly designed, I love this game. I think the addition of co op play is perfect for this game.
Once I get the physical I am definitely going to get my wife to play this with me.
Shame the update is not on the cartridge
Me and my 6-year-old son will be crying with laughter this evening: guaranteed.

Honk Honk HOOOOOOOOOOONNNKKKK!
Does that mean there's no online with local wireless multiplayer or no online with no wireless multiplayer at all?
Local Co-op
It should be online co-op as some of us are not in are teens anymore and don't have friends over to play videogames.
I will surprise my 7 and 9 yo daughters with this news this evening, then sit back and watch them wreak some dual-goose chaos!
I’d have double-dipped and bought the physical game if it included the multiplayer update. I hope they rectify that with a future release.
Not really interested - I'd have preferred more single play content. But I'm happy for others and will wait my turn.
@Luna-Harmony Yeah I’m in the same boat. I was really disappointed when I heard this was local multiplayer only 🤦🏻♂️
Its also on sale for 20% off with this update, so I think I'm finally gonna bite, since it will probably be years until it goes on sale again, with the rate it's been going at.
