Summer Games Fest 2022: 20 Huge Video Game Announcements You Need To Know

Perhaps the single most hilarious trailer at this year's Summer Games Fest was the wildly unexpected Goat Simulator 3.

For one, there hadn't been any rumblings at all that a third entry into the janky meme game series was in development, and also because Goat Simulator 2 doesn't actually exist.

The outrageous reveal trailer brilliantly subverted expectations by opening with a glossy cinematic which duped viewers into believing they were actually watching a teaser for Dead Island 2, before revealing the presence of a goat causing all manner of mayhem.

Goat Simulator 3 will unfold within the new sandbox of San Angora, will include four-player co-op both online and locally, and will allow players to extensively customise their goats.

In a sea of AAA bombast, this might be just the tonic gamers need when it drops this autumn on PC and PlayStation and Xbox consoles.
