Brawl on Hazardous Stages
Customize a Wobbly Fighter
Gang Beasts is a silly multiplayer party game with surly gelatinous characters, brutal slapstick fight sequences, and absurd hazardous environments, set in the mean streets of Beef City.

You control a customizable, soft-bodied fighter in Beef City, where the focus is on multiplayer brawling rather than a story. Play locally with friends or face other players online.
Punch, grab, grapple, and knock opponents out of the arena. Wobbly physics make movement and fights unpredictable, while hazardous stages—such as rooftops and vehicles—can turn the environment into part of the contest.
Modes include free-for-all melee and team fights against other gangs. Reviews also describe football and wave-based fights against bots, offering alternatives to the core knockout brawls.
Players who enjoy Gang Beasts often point to the comic, unpredictable physics and the fun of brawling with friends, where even losing can create a laugh. Some also appreciate how quickly groups can get into a match. Reviews are less positive about online matchmaking, lag, limited maps and modes, and the clumsy controls.
