House House’s Untitled Goose Game has gone from a potentially niche indie release to a fairly recognizable name in the past few months. Its popularity, coupled with a major segment at The Game Awards 2019 with the Muppets, are a testament to that. However, it’s also doing incredibly well sales-wise.
According to publisher Panic’s co-founder Cabel Sasser on Twitter, Untitled Goose Game has surpassed one million units sold. He further followed it up by stating, “The reaction was beyond anything we could have imagined. The fan art, the writing, yes the memes, protest signs, Chrissy Teigen, Muppets?! It feels once-in-a-lifetime. We hope we brought some joy into your life, because you brought so much into ours. And we’ll never forget it.”
Untitled Goose Game’s sandbox combined with the simple gameplay mechanics make it easy to get into. There’s nothing simple about your tasks though – you’re essentially a goose that goes around causing havoc. Steal someone’s glasses, dump stuff in the river, infiltrate backyards…essentially, the goose is loose and everyone should be terrified.
The title is currently available for Xbox One, PS4, PC and Nintendo Switch. It’s playable on Xbox Game Pass as well. Though currently exclusive to the Epic Games Store on PC, it will also be coming to Steam in late 2020. Stay tuned for more details in the coming months.
It seems impossible, but last week, three months after launch, Untitled Goose Game passed one million copies sold.
From the bottom of our hearts: thank you for playing our videogame.
