Goat Simulator 3 embraces its inner sheep with Catan crossover
A new Goat Simulator 3 update sees the iconic Catan sheep make her way to the indie game, and no, it’s not a joke. Developer Coffee Stain announced the crossover in a press release on April Fool’s Day, but the crossover is very much a real thing. For a short time, Coffee Stain is even renaming the game Sheep Simulator 3.
It's the kind of shenanigan you'd expect from the team that put Bigfoot in their game and got sued for using leaked GTA 6 footage.
While the crossover lasts, players can play as the Catan sheep instead of Goat Simulator’s Pilgor, as he’s gone on a little trip to celebrate his ninth birthday. Pilgor the goat will, instead, show up in the sheep’s place on Catan resource cards for those who play the board game’s digital version.
“We couldn't be happier to welcome CATAN’s sheep to San Angora, sheep are basically fluffier goats at the end of the day so we know she’ll fit right in,” Santiago Ferrero, Coffee Stain North’s creative director, said. “The island could also use a break from the troublesome Pilgor who we’ve managed to offload for a while to Catan to fill in as their resource goat, since she’s technically 32 in goat years it’s high time she tried her hooves at a proper job!”
Catan is joining in the fun and giving players in the U.S. a chance to win a set of Pilgor-themed resource cards to use in the physical game.
