Green Man Gaming Publishing alongside developers Pewter Games and LoPoly have today confirmed that their upcoming title Filthy Animals: Heist Simulator will also be getting an Xbox release alongside its PC counterpart. No official release date has been given but the game is currently slotted for a Q1 2023 release.
Filthy Animals: Heist Simulator is a chaotic co-op heist game that supports 1-4 players. Players will become a mutant animal who works for a criminal mastermind and will need to steal, fight, fall over and fill themselves with tacos as they try to successfully make off with the loot! Additionally, players will also need to solve puzzles, avoid security and quite simply, bumble their way to victory.
Heists will take place across various in-game locations such as a convenience store, a bank and even a secret military base!
The game recently underwent a playtest on Steam and it received some very favourable feedback across its 50,000+ downloads which spanned 30 countries worldwide.
You can check out the latest trailer below, as well as more details about the game.
- 1 – 4 Player online co-op – It’s not safe to steal alone, bring up to 3 pals with you and wreck the joint while you try to steal everything that’s not nailed down. Play co-op online or local and bring the chaos! But if you need some alone time, don’t worry, we’ve got you covered in single-player too.
- Challenging Heists – Success brings you bigger and tougher heists to cut your teeth on. Start with a store, move on up to a bank, and after that…the sky’s the limit! Literally.
- Enemies & Hazards – No-one said heists were easy. Every chapter is filled with enemies determined to stop your stealing and environmental hazards that will blow your socks clean off. With careful planning, and a lot of bumbling about, you’ll be able to smash and grab with the best of them. Even if you do lose your life, never fear, simply get your team to flush you down the toilet, and you’ll be back and fighting fit in no time.
- Abilities & Power-Ups – The deck isn’t stacked against you as each mutant animal has their own special ability letting you explode things, smash up levels, and level the playing field. Bring the chaos and let rip, just take care not to destroy your teammates. Drink soda and eat tacos and other spicy Mexican foods to give you the power you need to smash your way to victory!
- Weapons & Tools – There are loads of ways to beat each level in Filthy Animals so explore everything, grab tools and weapons so you can choose the route that suits you and your gang. Just make sure you choose the right tool for the job, a fire-axe can get you through a door but for those pesky guards a shotgun might just be the answer!
