A variety of new game announcements are coming one after another at the Xbox & Bethesda Games Showcase as part of E3 2021. While it may not be as big as Starfield or Avalanche Studios' new game Contraband, the party game Party Animals is no less exciting.

Party Animals is a physics-enabled fighting game featuring anthropomorphic cutesy/violent animals. Party Animals is also confirmed to be a timed Xbox console exclusive and Game Pass launch game when it arrives in 2022.

Party Animals' two-minute Xbox E3 announcement trailer is a great introduction to what the party game is all about. Unicorns, punk pigs, corgis, and kitty cats are shown pushing each other off cliffs, shooting each other with tasers, and otherwise being completely ridiculous. Even the levels are over-the-top, with stages including a flying bomber jet, a fish market with wiggling tentacles, a train with a firey coal engine, and more.

One massive question left unanswered in Party Animals' announcement is who it's being developed by. That question's been answered by one of the game's developers. Party Animals may look a lot like another fighting game named Gang Beasts, but it's made by someone else. Gang Beasts was made by Boneloaf, while Party Animals is being made by Recreate Games.

It's somewhat of a shame, but Party Animals' announcement was accidentally confirmed a day prior to its reveal during Xbox's E3 showcase. That doesn't pull away from how exciting the reveal was, but it does take away from some of the surprise. Luckily, the Xbox exclusivity and Game Pass deal helped bring back some of the shock value.

Party Animals releases on PC and Xbox in 2022.
