#HOW TO GET IN THE GANG BEASTS ONLINE BETA FREE#
They’ll shake free of you, but only by knocking you backwards into the wire supports holding the platform you’re both standing on, which now collapses on one side and leaves you both gripping the rails with one arm while you continue to wildly swing with the other.Ĭurrently access to the beta is carefully controlled, but you can request entry at this distribute() page. You’ll fight back, grabbing at your foe as they try to shake you off, punching you with their jelly arms as you grip at their jelly face. You’ll be knocked unconscious by a hit to the head, hoisted into the air by an enemy, and then wake up moments before they throw you into an abyss. Your move set is pretty simple – punch, lift, grab – but from this the most wonderfully cinematic battle stories spill out.
That said, despite still being in early access, we named Gang Beasts as the 21st best action game ever made. The game's level design, in which stages take place upon ferris wheels, the roofs of speeding lorries, and window cleaning gondolas, will still be wonderful, but I fear the madcap slapstick of it will fall flatter without grimacing and squealing pals alongside. Part of the fun is in picking up a friend, hoisting them above your head, and dawdling clumsily towards a meat grinder to a chorus of "No! No! No!". I'm curious as to how Gang Beasts' pleasures fare when you're removed from the people you're playing against. No more! The game of haphazard punching in comically hazardous locations now has an online multiplayer beta, so mountain-dwellers everywhere can play together - assuming you can get access.

Outside of early access, Gang Beasts received mixed reviews from critics on both the PC and PlayStation 4 versions of the game. Comments include Keith Stuart of The Guardian calling it "probably one of the silliest beat-'em-ups ever made," Jessica Conditt from Engadget calling it "a jolly good time," and Steve Hansen from Destructoid highlighting how its weirdness plays out well. Already in its freeware alpha state, as well as upon Steam Early Access release, the game was met with positive response from critics and fans.
